AAA - Triple A
AA - Double A
A - Single A
BC- Short Season A
DE - Rookie League

The last two abbreviations could've just as easily been SSA and RL. Think of it that way... In fact, those are just the default abbreviations. I'm pretty sure you can edit them to your liking... And they are actually different if you create a game based on current real-life setup:
Yes. I do understand where you're coming from and I appreciate you taking the time to discuss this with me. I just found it odd that they used BC since it's not something that was used in real life in 1985. However, I still think it's wrong to have the New York-Penn League "lower" than the Gulf Coast League team in my farm system.

Oh, by the way...Thank you so much for letting me know those things could be edited. I had absolutely no idea. I knew I could change info for individual League "Rules", but it never occurred to me to try the other tabs. Thanks!!
