New here too. Trying to figure out what to do and how to evaluate my roster. Any tips on how to evaluate my current players and who to sell, or release?

You will need your players to have salaries from $5000 to $9000 to promote.
don't buy expensive players.look for deals.

He means from V to IV.
You have to make the playoffs and be the champions.
(Or be the runner-up, idk)

you have to be the winner or the runner up to promote to the next level (basically make it to the finals)
and the salary is indicative on the skills of the player.
in your roster you will see that the players with higher skills will cost more money than the ones with lower skills.
in order to win Div V you will need players in the $5000 - $9000 range to be successful.
at the next level you need better players $15000-$25000 salaries.

one tip,
i find it is best to have a balanced team. some teams have a superstar and then other crappy players. balanced team wins in the long run imo.

I see thank you for explaining.

Also is it necessary to have a couple of good bench players? Would it be worth it to purposely place a potential starter and place him as the 6th man?

good question.
one thing you should know right away is that those potential ratings are nothing more than an indicator of how good a player CAN become if trained, over time.
"6th man" and "starter" is not telling you how you should place those players in your lineup, but it is telling you that if you trained both players equally, the guy with "starter" potential would become better over time than the "6th man".
Does that make sense? if what i say doesn't come thru let me know.
So to answer your question YES, if at this moment the "6th man" is better than the "starter" by all means, start the "6th man".
That said, there are situations where you could want to start a 6th man over an MVP :D
It really comes down to salary and you long-term goal.

That makes perfect sense.

I was asking if player "a" is better than player "b" and they both play the same position, is it necessary to have "a" start over "b" or is also a good idea to have some good players as the backups?

Yeah, I think it is a good idea to have decent backups as long as the pocket book allows.
