Trade Preference: Favor Veterans vs. Favor Prospects

MikeS21 · 03-16-2025, 10:26 PM

Okay, this setting has always been a little confusing to me.

First, does this setting only affect the AI, or does it also affect human GM’s as well?

Second, if it is set to Favor Veterans, does it make it easier to acquire prospects in a trade, and harder to trade for veterans? Likewise, if it is set to Favor Prospects, does it make it harder to acquire prospects and easier to trade veterans?

I tend to lean towards trading veterans for prospects. I rather enjoy building a farm system, even if I end up trading away quality major league players.

Affects AI. Humans can do whatever they want.
If set to veterans, then it is easier to acquire a prospect.
