I've already earned more PP in a month of A-ball than I did in the last two or three months in Rookie league combined. I added a single player, Xander Bogaerts, and I'm going up against "better" competition, if we're judging by the number of 80+ ranked cards they have.

It's luck, plain and simple. I've beaten up on Diamond pitchers and gotten shut out by Bronze ones. You're getting overly obsessed with the idea that the league above yours is going to have a talent gap so wide that promoted teams won't be able to compete. But the volatility of baseball in general completely mitigates that.
