Currently, MLB rates its minor leagues as Rookie, A, AA, and AAA. Rookie leagues are for those players that are very young, usually just out of high school, and are the player's first professional experience. A leagues are one step above rookie leagues, AA one step above A, and AAA leagues the highest in the minors for the most experienced and/or talented. An 'A' minor league would be composed of teams with younger players and prospects.
The 'R' is for rookie and these teams usually have newly drafted and signed young players mixed with some second year players. Rookie leagues are meant to teach the younger players the ins and outs of the professional game. The minor leagues that are rookie leagues are the Gulf Coast League, Arizona League, Pioneer League, and Appalachian League.
