I was looking to see if I could mess with minor league rotation adn whatnot but I couldn't find it. I'm assuming we just have that on minors page and games are played "invisibly"

However, If you go to your Management tab, and then click spring training, you can set management setting for all off your players. Things like replace for defense and pinch run settings are ignored, but I set my steal to ++. That setting does get applied and its a good way to find out who in your minors can steal bases.

On topic: Yes, most of the minor league stuff (games and all that jazz) is done invisibly behind the scenes. Your part is mostly picking the right position for them to train in. Just because a HS prospect says SS doesn't mean it will be his best position in the Majors.

Moved some players from A to AA and AA to AAA. wish I could hire a player developing manager. none to my liking that are out that I can get. Now I guess I wait a bit and see what my players can do. hopefully I can get on some win streaks here

I want to know what are the two training things I should be focused on under the training tab?

As long as you don't pick up under developed guys, you should be able to max out all your players eventually. That's the beauty of this game. You actually train the whole team, not just one position like in so many other online sports games. To start out I'd recommend using no focus until you have a better grasp on how development works.
