For example, my 1 pick at 27 was 80 overall projection by my scout had good hitting skills. Now start of this season he is only 20 overall projection.
I use heavily favor tools scouts. I use their rankings rather than Osa scouting rankings. I look for high Work ethic and intelligence first. Skip on low rankings of these players and skip on fragile players.
I've tried play throughs where I managed call ups and downs in the minors 100% and I've tried letting my Asst. GM do it. I run max scouting budget(24million(. 30% minor, international and amateur. 10% on majors. I run max development budget (36 million) too.

That's baseball.
