How Do I Find True Ratings?

is the OOTP scout the actual ratings for a player to begin the game?

It seems like there are players who are over/under rater with both scouts, and mine seems worse than the OOTP one. Lincecum is a 3 star pitcher

I just turn off scouting. to do that, go to game setup and uncheck the box labeled 'use complete scouting system'

If you are in Commissioner Mode, you can look at the true ratings in the player editor. The OSA is not the true ratings - in fact, it is generally considered less accurate than most team scouts.

I don't know if it's changed too much in the recent patch, but remember that current year performance is used in the star ratings. So if you have a very talented pitcher who has been slumping with a 4.50 ERA, he might not be rated 5.0 stars.

I saw this in my league before i downloaded the patch. A catcher batted .320 with 15 HRs in 225 ABs so he became 4 stars and i made him my starter and he batted .205 with 5 HRs in 525 ABs and went back to 1 star

There is now an option in the game setup to choose if you want the overall rating to be based on just ratings or based on how you have your AI Evaluation settings.

Now I know it's been changed in the latest patch.
