I normally would have increased the difficulty level, but I wanted to see what it would take to get called up to the Majors.

I’ve never had it take this long. Does it ONLY take your overall rating into account? If so, the pace is ridiculously slow. Even with the insane stats I’m putting up, I’m still only a 70 overall. I started with the Willie Mays type if that matters. I accepted a position change to second base, but the manager moved me back to CF after a couple weeks. Any suggestions on what else I need to do (besides spending real money to purchase equipment)?

I just finished the first year with some ridiculous numbers and ended the season as a 76 ovr CF/OF and got offered $88K for AAA Starter. I'm much better than every single OF bench player and fairly even with the current MLB starter but with much more power and speed. I think they intentionally toned down the call ups. I've been called up during the first year for the past 5-6 (or more) versions of The Show.

Edit: Got invited to Spring Training after the first year in AA, let's see if I can hit my way to the Majors.
