Almost every prospect on a team top 30 list in real life has been rated fairly well, but there's a small handful who still need adjusting, and Abreu is one of those guys, unfortunately. They'll be looked at before the public release on Friday, so should look better then, but you'll need to start a new game to see those changes.
There shouldn't be any no-name 'prospects' with good ratings left. If any are appearing on team prospect lists, it's because of how the game is generating those lists (with scouting on, the scouting error might make some guys seem better than they truly are). As Matt said above, that's something else that will be looked at. I'm curious, just so I can check their ratings and confirm they're reasonable - what 'no name prospects' are you seeing near the top of the NYY list?
