Most of the guys (if not all) that have these ratings are guys with literally 0 shot of making it to the majors.

Also, I believe those guys were mostly in short-season/rookie ball in 2008 which means we have no way to convert their stats into ratings. I'm thinking you're left with option one unless we can figure a way to mass edit them to suck, but just not suck so bad.
I truly appreciate the response. What I have found just looking at the Reds org is that there are 27 players above Rookie level that have the "1" ratings. I am going to sim some years, and see what happens. I guess what you're saying is that even if they are AAA or A players, they will quickly be dumped into the rookie league, and it won't matter. I guess I can live with that, but it still seems kinda weird to see a legitimate hitting prospect with no gap rating. I guess we'll see what happens to him.

Please understand, I have yet to find a player that I could really argue with in the set as far as ratings. Some excellent work went into rating these guys. The only thing that jumps out, really, are the ones who are not rated at all. Perhaps I'll just go through them an assigned random numbers, and see how that works out.


Again, thanks for the response, and all the work.
