the minors have a more compact regular season schedule? so, don't be afraid to keep extras. if they have the potential to make it to AAA, i will keep them around, and that tends to cull the heard for the most part. the others fallout when they hit their potential or sooner if space is at a premium - not too often.
i don't worry about age too much unless it's a bonafide everyday mlb prospect (minimum as in 45or50+/80). i want my best prospects to be sorrounded by developed players relative to that minor league level. so, if they are too old, have a low ceiling, and showing no development i don't mind if they are slightly dominating the competition. just don't make morale monsters.
anyway, it helps in numerous ways to have winning minor league teams.
if they cost money, have higher standards for those players, especially if you have a small market team.
