I'll just throw this out there and see if it might actually be constructive: I believe there is a big difference in the way that a scout who favors tools versus an equally rated scout who favors ability, especially concerning the amateur draft. This is even more true of those who highly favor one way or the other. I'm speaking from experience, having gone from a highly favoring tools guy (loves a lot of draftees) to a highly favoring ability guy (hates almost everybody). I'm only suggesting that you consider this aspect of scouting, new in OOTP 9.
