I've always wondered this. I'm just assuming it has something to do with player salary in relationship to budget?

Since I've never cared about coaches, I just used to offer the best coaches whatever they wanted for all positions. Then I found myself paying I think over $40mil total on coaches, so I figured I should fix that.

From that point on, when one coach leaves, I just appoint every coach below up 1 level, then go hire a new one at the lowest levels, it's saved me a ton of cash.

So you really want some bum handling your rookies?
May want to re-think that, but just an idea.

Everyone has their own opinion on this one. I've talked to a few guys that think the coaches only matter at the ML level, and some think that the coaches matter at every level, and will pay for the best. I stopped paying high dollar for coaches that are not at my ML level. I feel the players will develop the same whether you have a good coach at Short A or not.

FWIW, my core group of my best 5 or 6 players last season, and basically my only half decent players are all either homegrown drafted guys or guys I traded for that spent time in my minors...including Vicente Reyes. :)

decided to see my team, I have only 2 SPs, no RPs, and 3 hitters who were drafted or found internationally by my scout on my ML team.

I'm not sure if that's good for your argument.

Well, take a look at those top 5 or so guys I spoke about. McGee/Castaneda/Reyes/Meyer/Spencer, and let me know if they're subpar type guys.

The rest are all scrubs because I've just neglected my team for so long and those guys aren't good and were never any good.

I sign about 2-3 minor leaguers every off season who seem to be in the 40-50 range for potential. sometimes a guy gets a massive boost and becomes legit (Josh Jackson).
