Those are just the facts. Military is quite favored as everyone knows. Being an FO for two plus years will stall you for two plus years. The Yankees want the big leaguers now not two years from now. This is assuming you want to play for the Yankees and not the Toledo Hounddogs.
Lol when I hear people say this. How many guys don't we all know who already have TPIC time and are still sitting left seat at their regional?
Getting a quick upgrade and 1,000 TPIC time doesn't guarantee you anything. If it were only that easy. I'm just saying tons of guys are constantly chasing the same thing. Quick upgrade and hit the "big leagues" as you claim. Yet, they are still waiting in line for a phone call just like the other thousand of qualified applicants who meet the same criteria as them. If it works out that you upgraded and got hired at a major, great. However, if it doesn't you'll upgrade and sit left seat for a while just waiting. In that time you could've upgraded and had a better QOL elsewhere but yet you chose the same route as many others before you did....
"The Yankees" have proven they don't always want big leaguers as tons of FOs are getting hired without ever sitting in the left seat. Think about that for a moment...
