not to dismantle your argument, but AAA is so far away from big league pitching it's sick....lots of minor leaguers dominated (lets just name a few here...JR Phillips, Damon Minor, Bowker, Jesus Guzman, just to name a few Giants) that were horrible in the bigs...

in the bigs, every player is scouted under so much scrutiny....they know every weakness and every pitcher in the bigs can exploit it....AAA is not like that, AAA pitchers aren't in the bigs for a reason, they aren't good enough...usually AA pitching is better, becuase the best prospects are down in AA and usually just get a few starts in AAA and then are moved up...AAA guys are usually older guys that will replace big leaguers when they get injured....so don't think AAA is close to the majors, because it is not even close at all.....also the fact that it is much tougher to play infront of big crowds and be nitpicked by the media...which is another tough thing to deal with in the show...AAA and the show aren't even comparable
