Im using .250 aging and .750 developing right now. I dont have hard data to share but I like what I am seeing just using the eye test.

The suggested settings here (.250, 1.000, etc) was great but I was still annoyed by the accelerated handling of prospects. Too many guys were moving up multiple levels too often in a single season. Many of the top guys even spent an entire year in AAA before hiiting the Majors. Now I am seeing most of the top guys go from AA to the Majors and less accerated calling up during the year but still see (elite) guys make the Majors as early as 2 years while others are successful in the 4 year range with even some late bloomers taking 6. No more late round rookies going from Rookie ball to Advance A in on year.

Im sure my other settings had an effect too but just wanted to share just incase anyone wanted to run another test or not.

It didnt seem like (eye test) the dev setting threw off the age distribution at all as far as making it worst. The suggested setting (the recent one) here was great. Just wanted to fix a little annoyance.

Grain of salt.
