Historical Career league question re: Minors & Player Development

Harry_BallSack · 03-26-2016, 07:01 AM

So I recall in previous versions one of the key development tactics was to make sure that your top prospects were either the only player at that position on their minor league team or 1 of 2 max at that positions.

In the historical minor leagues scenario where I am the 1963 mets right now I have 5 minor league teams, 1 AAA 3 A and 1 BC - with historical import of ammys each of the teams have like 4-5 players at almost every position (except RF - which seems to never get any love on primary position on import). Do I need to be releasing folks at every position to get down to 2 max (best 2) to ensure top development oppty?

Don't go release-happy unless you need to. Try cutting the higher-level teams to around 30 players at most.
