I kept getting hung up on the split / double split / scope screen within the players panel. If you can describe specifically how you go about evaluating statistics from the previous year I'd greatly appreciate it.
Additionally, does this mean I should really be sorting by age? Anyone over 18/19 shouldn't be in the R league?

first, click on split and set it to last year. Then click on scope and select the league that you want the stats to show for.
You do not need to select a league for the scope in AAA, AA, and A- since there's only one team at that level.
I wouldn't necessarily say that 19 and up should not be in rookie. In fact, many average ages for rookie in real life creep up to 20. When you are missing a R+ team, you're going to have some older guys at R.
Ideally, a player should be moving up every season, but that's not practical for every player since there's a whole host of reasons why he could not move up. Players are going to have to repeat sometimes. I wouldn't take my guide and apply the same rules to every player. However, I do have some hard lines that actually follow MiLB roster rules. A player will not spend more than:
3 seasons in rookie(4 for DSL rookie),
4 seasons in A- and below
5 seasons in A and below
6 seasons in A+ and below
So if I have a player that has been a pro for 6 seasons, he must be able to play AA or he's cut. If he's been in my minors for 4 seasons and is not ready for Single A, he gone.
