Interesting. I had not thought of it that way.

For 25, I used 100-0-0-0 from the start of the season until mid-July. Then I'd go to 35-35-20-10 (or something along those lines) up until trading deadline day (apply changes now and recalculate GM tendencies), after which I'd go back to 100-0-0-0. Once the offseason started, I'd go to 35-0-35-30 (assuming that "current year stats) no longer applied. Once the new season started, I reverted back to 100-0-0-0.

What I noticed with this setup is that the AI almost never waived/released good or semi-good minor leaguers, which had previously happened regularly and annoyed me greatly.

The great thing about OOTP is that there isn't just one way to enjoy the game. And I appreciate the insights from users such as yourself who have much more experience than I do. Thank you!
