I imagine a "hidden gem" could mean someone inside the country if you don't have international scouting turned on. That may not be realistic in the modern era but then again it is really realistic during the period of time when RL major league baseball didn't really look outside of the US for talent. According to legend, Jimmie Foxx was discovered when a scout asked him for directions and he pointed them out with a plow.
