I took over a team, season 4 just began, and the old owner has three pitchers, all between 21-22 years old, that project to be decent ML pitchers. Overalls between 68-71. However, they've all been at the AAA level for the past two years (this will be their 3rd season at AAA). Will this stunt their development at all? I usually like to progress my prospects up through the minors, not toss them in AAA after drafting them. Just wondering if others have had experience here.

I plan on getting a stud AAA Pitching Coach

Melo is just a two pitch guy, and one of them is mediocre.  He has a low Make-up, too. Guys like this get lit up  He's a Set-up B guy who will have an ERA in the mid-high 4's.  He only OK.

Hahn is a MLB starter, kind of.  He has real control problems, as you know.  ERA in the high 4's.  He's a #4, #5 type of guy.

Brandt is pretty good.  A #2 guy with a low pitch count but high stamina.

Really you have two complementary guys and one good one.  Another year (or part year) in AAA shouldn't hurt them...with a good pitching coach.

i know 41 control is horrid, but i thought 75/75+ splits and 4 pitches 70+ (according to projections) might make up for it abit

Assuming moe has the right pitchers, they're close to full development now.    Pitch them a lot and they'll develop OK.

Everyone has one where they say "his control should suck, but damn, I've got to try him"

I usually shy away from any pitcher with control under 60 and prefer 80+, but like deathinahole says, sometimes you got to try them.

How is he worth 5m???

Don't worry about Melo and Hahn.  Hahn's probably almost done developing, which means he won't run his splits/pitches high enough to justify the 41 control.  Melo is a very marginal major leaguer.

If Brandt doesn't advance his control and splits by a point each at the first "regular season" marker, move him to the majors.  I do think that the 3rd season at a level can stunt development, although I'm not confident of it, and his makeup and patience are nothing special, so if stagnation does happen it might happen to him.
