When Baseball And Vehicles Collide

At My Analogies' Garage...
THE SHOW(MLB): Runs the gamut from Top Fuelers, Funny Cars, Pro Stock, and Cycles to classic antiques. On average, they make the plays 90% of the time, defensively.
AAA: The "flaw" league, have players that usually have problems to overcome even though they are highly polished skillwise. Defensively, they make the plays 75%-89% of the time. Car analogy: no-go showboat.
AA: Players are less polished(make the plays 50%-74% of the time). Car analogy: AA Fuel Dragster that needs a tuneup. However, players on this level can make the jump to the show over the AAA player-believe it or not.
A, High A: Rookies and semi-inexperienced youngsters...mostly. Sometimes it seems as if they never make the plays. Car analogy: Still on the assembly line.
Independent League: Made up of a few "has beens or once was's" and lower tier filler players. Car analogy... DeLorean (interesting idea, but...)
