For example, a player had a 9 for power last night who I thought was an 8 on Tuesday or something like that. Updated Thursday, January 7 2016 @ 6:52:58 pm PST

Every critical player in my minors gained SI, and four became ready to promote including three 24 year olds who were in A, AA, and AAA (one was in each). Guzman also gained another point to bump up to 116 at age 30, lending further proof to Seca's idea of the development curve flattening out but never stopping. Not sure about my pitching situation, as is it looks like I'm going to have 4 or 5 pitchers become ready for the majors at the same time, and they are all my best prospects, but it likely won't be until the all-star break of 2028 at the earliest.

NOTE the 1st round draft pick in evry season gets full play time in spring training. 2nd round will get the weekend or 3 days in spring. 3rd thru 10 picks have to wait full season to get a spring game. and will only get 7-1 training updates. this is why 1st rd picks are so much better than evry other pick.

But I did have something like +18 SI last week, and from what I've seen my +10 SI seems to have been better than most. I ditched my 'excellent' teaching manager in the offseason for a better overall manager, who is 'good' at teaching - and I've had consistently high SI gains all year (15-23 per week; can't break it down right now because my spreadsheet is on my work PC! ), I think +168 SI over the ten updates.

newtman Joined: 11/02/2013 Posts: 3343 Inactive	The manager is only a small part of it though, it also depends on the room left for SI gain, where players are in their progress towards their next skill point in a given skill (i.e. .1 or .9 towards the next full point), etc.
