That would depend a lot on league structure, year, etc.
My experience was playing for an associated team. Good players were plucked away from me at a whim and new players assigned (from above or below).
I don't recall ever getting instructions about 'play this person a lot' or any other specifics for player development. I did try to give every player some playing time until they showed they were inept, but that was just me.
For what it is worth, I have just started a new league (fictitious teams & players) in the 1870s and am sorting through the players without supporting stats from prior years' play. The experience I got from doing what you are doing now has been very helpful.
