Piazza is a good example of a fairly quick boom, though.

His third year in the minors at high A ball is when he really exploded. I definitely think there should be booms in the development model and even busts. But I think busts should happen earlier in their pro career while booms may extend a little later. Piazza boomed at age 22. He made the majors the next year at age 23.

That's another problem I have with OOTP. The player development seems a little slow overall, but I haven't really studied it that closely.
