My major team is in rebuilding modus and i've acquired some younger players (below 30). My minors do have some prospects and the best one is: Wadsworth. My coaches suggest him to play AA-ball but his SI is already pretty high for a prospect (correct me if im wrong). What do you guys suggest: Do I need to promote/demote the guy? Looking forward to your suggestions! Greetings, Tabula Rasa

At age 25 and beyond minors are automatically recommended for the majors, no matter what level they played at previously - you have to figure out for yourself what to do with 25-yos who have never played above AA (and sometimes A-ball). Which is why you need a few seasons experience. And Endrju is spot on. Wadsworth is a top prospect with an ideal defensive profile for SS, and those guys are hard to come by - move him immediately to SS on his "Play" position on your minor league page.

I'd probably keep him down in AA until he's ready to move to AAA according to the game. I think he'll probably need a full AAA season once he gets the call in a week or two, so i don't think it's that important to bring him up at 25. 12-13 hitting is probably more important if you want the bat to be non-detrimental as a rookie, and since you want to get him to as close to a small ss as possible before playing him there in the majors, it'd make sense.
