suggest for next version - minors adjust

I think it would be nice to have one button that moves all minor league players at once to the appropriate level based on the coaches suggestions.

I find it drudge work to go through that process player by player and make those transactions manually which the game could do rather easily. This is one of those things that takes away from the fun of the game.

That button already exists. It's called "Have AI automatically setup minors". It is located on the screen that shows your active/40man/DFA/ect rosters.

Wow, thank-you. I missed that before.

It hasn't ever seemed to follow the coach's suggestions though. I tried that and still found most players to be in the wrong level based on what the coaches were saying.

Could it be that the 'Have AI automatically set up minors' button sets up the minors to maximize wins, not to optimize player development?

I believe it takes the most ready guys at each position. I haven't figured out how it knows how many of each position at each level. I could very well be wrong, but that's a thing I've tried to figure out myself.

Just be careful when using the 'Have AI automatically set up minors' button. The computer will occasionally release some minor league players when using it. I had it release two 4.5 star prospects on me. So make sure you check the transaction screen after you use it.

Yes, it's done that to me as well, releasing my #1 draft pick. Unfortunately by the time I noticed another team had grabbed him.
