Bah. I'm far too lazy to do that much 'work' to just check average age.

I do know that so far in TF1930 template it's definitely stopped so many players from having great seasons at 32/33... then not being wanted by teams all of a sudden.

My biggest concern was that it may help get a good age distribution, but that it might give way too many 40+ year olds still dominating given the drastic change in aging. So far I've seen a realistic amount of 40+ year olds still capable of holding their own at the top of MLB. I was also worried it would take batting prospects way to long to develop, but so far it doesn't seem to be a problem. Twenty-one years in when I last looked around the league.

I think the ultimate test for me will be how it works when you do a large universe where the vast majority of leagues are a lot smaller in structure than your test league.
