Should I expand my roster if I am in last place in my division with no chance of making the playoffs?  Is there any advantage to doing this like increased player ratings?  Thank you.

If your AAA team isn't in the playoffs, you can get extra playing time for your prospects.   Only promote players already on the 40 who have options(so you can send them back down when the season is over).  You can also use them to protect your BL players from fatigue injuries.

To be a little more specific, injuries come in bunches.   If you've got a player in his 30s with 2-3 years left on his contract, the last thing you need is a 147 day injury in a game when you're 62-93.   Until that "injury bomb" hits, I like to rest those guys.
