I hate checking my minors and seeing that some 28 year old career AA player is in the lineup over my stud 22 year old prospect that needs playing time.

I just set my minor league teams (below AA) to 'heavily favor prospects', and I don't have a problem. When I ask the coach for a depth chart, only prospects get starting assignments.
