I'm glad to hear the responses to Andy's and No Pepper's concerns about frequent, up-and-down roster moves in the minors. Definitely not realistic, and fun-draining for those who want to manage in the minors. I can attest to that from experience.
However, I can also live with and even welcome the occasional situation of being left with "3 1st basemen and only 2 other infielders" as long as there is evidence that the AI GM is doing it for the benefit of the big league club or the whole organization. This seems realistic to me; I don't think a minor league manager would gripe to the GM about being shorthanded at certain positions. He would be expected to make do, possibly training young players to learn new positions (depending on the minor league level, of course).
