Lot goes into it, including more than just player development. I like to develop a organizational philosophy when I start a new save. So let’s say I’m going all in on power pitchers. I’m going to try and build my coaching staff up and down the minors with coaches that focus on that development. Same goes for hitters, but you can sometimes take the opposite approach. For example, I usually draft hitters based on contact and eye, and mix my hitting coaches to focus on power and patience. If they already are high contact players, maybe the coaches can bring some power out of them.
Again, sometimes things just wont work out. But I really believe if you stick to your guns and have a set strategy, you may find yourself with better results.
