Now you have fairly polished college players mixing with the rawest of high school draft picks at the domestic complex.
Perhaps they've figured out how to make it work IRL but it creates a bit of a problem for us. If you set too young an age limit for the domestic complex team, then a lot of college draftees are going to be left in 'no man's land' between the complex and full season A ball.

Which is why I have SSA in my baseball universe
