Yes, semi-randomly, affected by the setting you use for player development.

Yep

Not sure but I hope you get an answer to this, as I am curious...

I'd just add that expansion teams generally start out with players who are not all that good: fringe major-leaguers & guys that belong in the minors, washed-up major-leaguers, and a few established major leaguers who are average-at-best. So, with that as your starting point, also keep in mind that random development is just as likely to make an individual player worse as it is better.

Good luck

Awesome thanks for the replies.


When you say "Yes, semi-randomly, affected by the setting you use for player development."


If I were to have the talent randomness rating extremely low, would that be basically the same as checking "disable player development" then? Or are those distinct from each other?
