Kinda like the scouts in real life that didn't put much value on that guy that, some time ago, was drafted in the 500th round...I forgot his name...uh..um...
Oh yeah, Albert Pujols!!
In all seriousness though, scouts are created with different degrees of quality in the game but that doesn't mean a straight, across the board leves of accuracy. It more means that the better scouts have a better chance at being accurate. Even the best scouts will blow chunks with evaluations of players and the less established a player is, the less likely any scout will be totally accurate.
