The minor league translations sometimes make guys ready for the big-leagues before they were brought up in real life, something that is likely difficult to avoid unless they just make all minor leaguers really awful.
If you want more accuracy, probably need to remove the historical minors.

This is what ends up happening. My favorite mode is historical. With historical minors on, if a player tears up the very low levels of the minors (usually rookie ball), they will come in with inflated ratings when they import into the draft. With recent patches, I have noticed fewer players going directly to the majors from the draft in a historical game....but still a few players that are too young (17-19). FWIW, I have found in my tests that imposing an age limit at the MLB level leads to bizarre releases of top prospects.
