Is this because they're just not worth giving a shot, or what's the situation? Should I just try and give them a chance and see what happens? |

In fact that whole page is mostly just for fun. I rarely ever look at it. There isn't any information on that page that I would use for making a game decision. Both of those guys have less than a year in AAA. I would definitely keep them in AAA. They are progressing fine. Updated Friday, April 2 2021 @ 9:27:04 am PDT |

And on one prospect, they whiffed by 2 whole seasons. And being at 90 and 92 SI, they’ll be ready sometime during ‘50 |

He hasn’t gained a SI this year. He still isn’t ready for A, and I don’t know whether I should just call him up or obey the computer. |

The AI managers don't always give the correct information for promotion. There is some fuzziness there on purpose. Rookie ball can be tough because its always hard to tell how prepared they are when they are coming in. Its possibly he just needs a lot of time in Rookie, but I think you probably made the right call pushing him to A at this point. | ||
