Scouting

Not sure if this is a bug, or if I'm mis-interpreting, so I'll put it here for now.

I did a quick start ML game, taking control of the angels.

Re-organised the system with AI, and it dumped Joe Saunders into AAA, which I thought was odd so I investigated..

On his profile page, it gives him an overall rating of 1/2 a star, with a potential of 2 star. On the scouting report page the same scout gives him a current rating of 4 star with potential of 5 stars..

Any clue what's going on?

Scouting report is taken from the beginning of the year usually (1/1/2009). That may be the cause or you may have found a bug. Can you take a screenshot?

I'd also wonder if you're absolutely sure that the same scout is looking at the player both times. Could one be the default OOTP scouting department?

Yeah, Saunders doesn't have enough quality pitches to be considered a starter and the game is dumping him because of this. It has been noted in the roster thread.

I think it goes beyond that.. there are many occasions where the scouting report on the (for example) search players screen is the same as the one on the first page of his profile, but completely different to both the OSN and Angels scout ratings in the Scouting Reports tab..
