The minor leaguers got a crazy amount of training. I'm not the only one experiencing something like this. Is it possible major leaguers got a short shaft in their training?

If Steve does roll things back at all, whether to before the first training update or all the way back to the start of the season, it's a decision he needs to make by Monday afternoon before the first Cup games, and before Tuesday's season opener at the absolute latest. None of us will like losing the last few days or the entire preseason and having to redo things, but I daresay we'll be understanding about it. Once the Cup and regular season get started, though, I really do think the chance to declare a mulligan will have passed. tl;dr: It's now or never time, Steve. Should we plan on playing this out or are we retconning? Updated Sunday, October 22 2017 @ 2:19:47 am PDT

This was an event that could be felt well into the 2050s as the current batch of teenagers winds down toward retirement. Food for thought.

He knows how players develop, we just have the collective wisdom of years of trial & error. I don't think he'd let it go forward if it was going to seriously unbalance the game for a decade or more.
