But a lot of people don't like the talent drops. As I said in a post somewhere else, talent hits are the #1 complaint of online leagues (other than a few pesky bugs).

No one expects every 5 star potential guy to become 5 stars, or even a 2 star potential guy to become 2 stars.

But these talent drops happen for no apparent reason. In DDB, I just had one of my 4 star potential outfielders become a 1-star, over night. No reason. He was sitting in AAA, hitting around .320 (league average is .267), morale was decent, no injuries... and just bam. He's no longer any good. That just doesn't make sense. In anyone's imagination.
