Minor League PP Reward

[lordtoffee]

Just a random thought for the GB to consider, but might be something interesting. Maybe the organization that has the best minor league record across all levels should get an award or a couple of PP? Could help keep second division teams engaged and give some ideas for forum writing?

This might really surprise you all, but I am actually HIGHLY in favor of this idea. Starting this season.

Because this would lead even more people to play 35 year olds in rookie ball and the like.

Well when first round picks have 45 or 50 POT, what other choice does one have??

I’m just as guilty as Sean on playing older guys at low levels to try and win. I also think we both do mix in our “prospects” fairly with those veterans.

And heck, one guy I signed to load up my A-Ball team is on the verge of starting at 3B in the Brewster Series because I had to call him up and use him.

THIS. I had Don Smith as a minor leaguer, and called him up. He ended up leading us to the playoffs. Like I said before, draft picks these days are largely crap, as are IFAs. So why not load up with some vets and see what it gets you?

Marko? Prospects?

Old RF Hector Cruz even gave me a 0.9 WAR in 50 games, 2B Ron Ritchie did even better with 1.7 in 70 games...
And 1B Francolillini went player of the week when i promoted him for my injured starter.
