I think we are talking different leagues... By LOW A, I mean the Sally League, Midwest League, etc. SHORT A would be the NY-Penn and Northwest League.
I have no concern for what the Japanese leagues do (though I was born there), but I don't mind anyone else caring that there Japanese League is realistic.
In my minor league setup for my baseball game, I would like the AI to only have players on the roster that they play (except for injuries). I believe this is realistic and is irrelevant of the actual number of players on the roster. As it stands, the AI is putting 38 year olds on their Rookie league roster and hording players there in general with no reasonable excuse to do so, thus denying me the opportunity to replace injured players in my own minor league system with FA pool signings. May 1st they do a mass cut and trim the 80-100 man roster down to 35-50, but during April, the FA pool is empty.
On a related vein, I would like the opportunity to play any player in my organization during Spring training without having to put him on the active roster. A player signed to a minor league deal should not be subject to waivers just because I played him in a spring training game...
