Yes, it's gotten even worse as I reached the 1979 draft pool reveal. Doug Potestio, a minor league rookie, has been given astronomical ratings of 9/9/5 on a 10-point scale and, with scouting turned off, the sim has declared that he has 5 stars of current and potential ability relative to MLB talent. This despite him having no stats for 1979 and pitching only 67 innings of class A ball in 1980. Yes, he put up some great numbers in limited action in rookie A, but this is the craziest thing I've ever seen in OOTP. There are similar problems all over the draft pool, with class A and AA players being rated way too highly.

Something is badly broken with the historical minors. I'll have to figure out what the process is for reporting bugs these days, because this is an absolute show-stopper.
