Player Development Tab

Was wondering how many player development reports people have generated/keep?

In my game right now, I have them generated monthly, and I keep them all. I'm starting to wonder if I'm giving myself too much info and it's actually making it harder to decide when ML players need to go, and when to promote/demote minor leaguers.

I usually go with one every two months, especially since my ratings are heavily stats oriented, it keeps a cold streak from absolutely dropping their ratings, at least visibly.

My scouting is set to 30/40/20/10, and I've seen my #1 prospect have small increases in POT/ABL up until the last month, where he fell in everything. That just happened to be his 1st month in AAA. I don't want to demote him and make him upset if it's just a fluke. In the other hand, I don't want to leave him there if its gonna screw up his development.

On a side note. I had a Below average catcher at triple a whom I planned on letting him become a minor league free agent at the end of the season. All of the sudden out of no where he had ratings increases of 30-40 points acrossed the board (1-100 scale), and he is now consider a 4.5 rated catcher! What the heck happened!?
