Fundamentally, player development is a function of coach quality and games played. So if he's in fact going to be a starter at the ML level and your PC in ML is better than AAA, then it should help to promote him. How much this will help, I don't really know, but that's the theory at least. Personally, I'd wait until next season after the completion of 20 AAA games to minimize service time because I don't think the impact is going to be noticeable enough to justify losing one year of control.
