I have a real frustration with handling or rather the INability to handle prospect development. I have had a top prospect (67/95) spend 3+ yrs in ROOKIE ball. Come on. give me a break. You already have the "move to" control ability in BBM 2006. How about giving us (the GMs who keep paying month after month) the same ability? The only way to evaluate a top prospect in A or AA ball is to bring him up to ML & play him awile. Can't do that during a race! And if you are out of the race & bring him up for 10-15 games & he's not ready, you can be accused of tanking by those still involved in the race. Need some real help here & now! You got it, let us have it. PLEASE

hear hear. But I agree, guys will be hitting over .300 in A, then they get dropped back to R level, and then theyre 26 yrs old never playing in AAA with a career .300+ average in the minors. A perfect example is Dustin Pedroia. **** sit in Bostons R and A forever it seems. This feature I think is necessary for the betterment of the league
