Team Mentoring Systems
There are 2 different formulas that leagues use for calculating Team Mentoring. The default formula is used by most leagues and in all Dynasty and Trial Leagues. This is called System 1. Under System 2, bench mentoring is far less important and the number of mentors in your starting lineup, rotation, and bullpen is more important. Pitcher mentoring bleeds, meaning relievers will have a small impact on your starters, and vice versa. Under System 2, it will be no longer be possible to get to C+ mentoring with just one mentor. In addition, the upper cap has been removed for Mentoring so it will be feasible to get to B+ mentoring, or even A+ mentoring.

There are 2 different formulas that leagues use for calculating individual player Mentoring. The default formula is used by most leagues and in all Dynasty and Trial Leagues. This is called System 1. System 2 is a slight modification of System 1 and uses a player value formula rather than overall rating as the component in the formula. Power and Offense in general is weighted more heavily in the player value component verses the total rating formula. For pitchers, Control is more important than Velocity in the player value component It also weighs leadership less than System 1 does. The end result of this is that players who were never any good will not be great mentors under system 2. You might be able to find a career waiver wire guy who is a C+ in Mentoring, but you will have a tougher time finding an A+ guy.Team Mentoring Systems

I like System 2 for Player Mentoring and System 2 for Team Mentoring. Both will encourage teams to stay relatively competitive by keeping good pitchers and hitters in their starting lineups for mentoring. This will also, i believe, discourage tanking.

I like system 2 for players and team mentoring, pretty much for the same reasons mentioned by brady.
