I think this was primarily about killing 2 birds with 1 stone relative to the fact that all short 'lowest' leagues started after the draft when this was written. Do it all at once when the complex players are at oldest age possible without a service year accrued and clears up what you want for late round draft picks that focus on mil filler / depth.
I try to clump together anything that stops game-to-game simulation. I even change trade deadline to match the stoppage for a new month.. 1 day, no big change but my sim doesn't stop as often, lol.
If you have rookie level leagues starting in spring, you could move some then, too.. same thing.
This is about filler players, not 'real' prospects
Scouiting values.. you do get more accurate scouting reports at higher levels (among other factors that matter). But, since this comment is about filler players specifically from the int'l complex, you really don't have to care about their development nor accuracy of scouting at this step / date on calendar. So, i probably shouldn't have put that in prantheses.
EDIT: Oh, i think i recall scouting values update upon promotion... so maybe that... maybe that doesn't happen anymore? maybe they didn't back then.. lol must be some reason i put it there
"Real" prospects get a hand-tailored approach. These are on some shortlist you look at more regularly. Think that's is covered in the guide.
Should hve a slightly sandbagged MIL system if you follow this guide. This means more wins, happier prospects, better development, improving reputation mil coaches etc etc.. not one thing is a huge factor but all together adds up quite well.
just have to draft well enough to replace attrition at AAA to do it. You want a little log-jam for the filler to advance and that allows the good propspects to move freely and solely due to ratings/age and avoiding extraordinarily horrid results. It's okay for real prospects to flounder a bit. You want the filler to be killers, relative to level. - who cares if you slightly impede a never-gonna-be..
