Obviously, there are only seven Negro leagues recognized as major, and all others are considered to be minors or low minors because their talent levels were considerably lower, and they didn't have the money to retain the best players. Then there are the issues with franchises folding, leagues folding, and general volatility. Hence, OOTP appears to handle these leagues the way they're viewed by historians and by MLB. The same thing happens with all historical minors players who played in leagues that are considered lower-level.

Yeah, I'm fully aware how it works. You're kind of missing my point. I'm talking about an edited guy in a dev only environment. It refers back to a conversation early in this thread.
