I'll admit that I don't entirely understand the logic as you have explained it here, given that in my experience any player who is 40-man roster worthy and could fill in on the active roster in case of injury would be wasted in lower levels of a minor league system and it would harm their development. But it's your game, play it your way.

Your first assumption is that a lower-level minor league player is worthy of development. Here is one example I have a defense specialist that I will plug into a spot that is for say for 2 to 4 weeks only. I like to use defense to plug in holes for a short-term injury. I will also use a player that is not worthy with longer injuries if I'm trying to get the best draft pick I can get.

Now if I'm trying to win and I have a good rookie I can bring up during the season because of Injury I will if I feel he is ready. I could give you more examples but I get the feeling you will never understand how I play because it's not how you play.
