This may or may not be a cause for concern: I’ve dumped a lot of time into this game since release and have worked my way up to a 75 OVR as a Catcher for the Orioles. I’m the best player on the AA roster and the 2nd best Catcher on the entire team; however, I’m starting my 3rd season still in AA. I’ve played 75% of my games and posted fairly good numbers.

Has anyone been called up yet? If so, what’s the timetable?

If you check out the official Road To The Show thread, there are lots of players who have had their character called up. I haven't spent much time with RTTS in 18 myself, but if it's anything like 17 and 16, my experience was that I would never get called up to the Bigs if there was a player at my position in the organization with a higher rating (or even about the same or slightly lower). I'm not saying that that that is righteous or just, but just that it is.

I am, however, surprised that you haven't been called to AAA. That does seem peculiar.

That’s kinda weird. Maybe you should ask for a trade.

My RF for the AA New Hampshire Fishercats was called up the very next season to the AAA Buffalo Bisons. I am just beginning my play there for 2019 season.So I guess it can happen

I have a 3rd baseman who was called up from AA to MLB after about 300 plate appearances. I wish I was called up to AAA instead.

I made the big league team out of spring camp in my 2nd season, was 72 OVR.

The issue was that I was playing off the bench as a 19 year old. In my 3rd season now and an 80 OVR...still coming off the bench.

Funnily enough, five minutes after I posted this, I was invited to spring training. I did well and made the 40 man roster but I’m coming off the bench at a 77 OVR, which is fine by me seeing as Chance Sisco is only a 78. I went 1-4 in my first game with two strikeouts...but with a walkoff homer in the bottom of the 10th. How sweet it is.

Those of you who got called up by season 2, what archetypes/positions are you?

I picked Mr. Reliable because it seems like the best overall build but I feel like my hitting attributes started much lower than I expected them too. Just not sure how they'll look by seasons end
