The image is from an OOPT historical game that is in 1993, so it may not exactly match to current, but you get the idea... I believe B and C each represent a level (short season and something else), and D and E represent (I think) high and low rookie league. And for OOTP, B and C are combined and D and E are combined (just like "A" represents both Advanced-A and "just" A).

At any rate, the Appy and Pioneer Leagues are "Rookie Advanced" leagues, slightly above the AZL and GCL, which are "Rookie" leagues.
Ugh. I am so sorry. I can't believe I forgot to mention that I am playing a Historical saved game. I started with the 1981 Yankees and I'm currently in 1985. theHef is right on track with what I'm talking about. There's nothing wrong with my game.



You can see the two minor league in the drop-down list, or as the heading for each team with those roster boxes. Both Gulf Coast League and New York-Penn League are assigned the classification of BC in OOTP. As I said in the OP, Class B and Class C were abolished at the end of 1962. So, there shouldn't be any B or C League Classifications in OOTP after 1962. The New York-Penn League should be labeled Class A Short Season. The Gulf Coast League should be labeled Rookie.
Class A Short Season is a "higher" classification than Rookie. Yet, they are reversed in OOTP.
