Thanks for the explanation, Kelric.

So, when it tells me my overall starting pitching is 8th in a twelve team league, it's really only saying that the combination of my 'ace' (who doesn't rank in the top 19 starters) and my AA prospect average out to 8th. No concept about my other four top level starters, two of which should still be in AA. (My guess is that I'm closer to 12th than 8th.) And the same for middle relievers; even though there are a bunch of them at all levels, the evaluation is done on just two.

Well, that's quick and dirty, and not as useful as I thought it would be.

Edit: I was just checking out a league with no minors, and it turns out the same player is listed as starter and prospect at each position. What's seriously weird about that is that if the guy is ranked 1 for the position, he'll be ranked 2 as a propect, and vice versa (two team league). The overall value seems to be assigned randomly.

But really all I want to do is play.

So I'll try harder to be patient and hopefully the board will be patient with me.
And yes, I am still continuing my campaign to promote adding a 'mass select' option to Out of the Park 10.
