I've done some research on this in the real world. These are the cutoff ages in terms of when a prospect needs to be moved through a level. If he isn't ready to move up by this point, he's really struggling:

Rookie: 21
Short A: 22
A: 23
Advanced A: 24
AA: 23-24
AAA: 24

For AAA you are going to need the older players there for backups in case of injury or whatever as the previous poster said, but if your top prospects aren't ready for the call by then, they're really falling behind.

Oh and rookie is kind of strange, as there are two distributions of age and cutoffs. High school, international signings, and college players all end up there. Usually the player should only need one year there. 2 if very young and very raw.
