I like teams in my fictional solo league to have a certain "personality". That is, for organizations to be "pitching oriented", "hitting oriented", etc. So while I use scouts, I manually edit them for each team and then lock them up to long-term deals.

For example, in my league "Fort Collins" tends to be a good offensive team with poor pitching. So I edit all their scouts to be good at finding offensive players and mediocre/poor at finding pitchers. They'll still luck into finding SOME pitchers, but for the most part they'll struggle a bit there.

There's some tweaking necessary year to year (as scouts ratings change) but I have a small league (10 teams) so it's no big deal.
