So I don't know:

- What does that look like when you are evaluating a draft or trade?
- What exactly are Other Ratings?
- Do you need scouts with "Diet Stats-Only" or can they be turned off?

Nice. I should trade mark Diet Stats-only and get me some money.
Anyway, yes I was able to turn overalls off and potentials on. I have potentials set to 2-8. So when I open a player's profile, I only see those ratings, his potential, not what the scout thinks his skill is at this very moment.
I have the stars on, set to AI evaluation, which of course I have altered as well to make ratings evaluated at 0 percent.
The 'other' ratings allow me to see his fielding skills and his baserunning skills. And bunting I think is in there too. Thinks I find would be while not impossible, just harder to figure out using only stats.
Scouting is on for me, set to....either low or normal I will need to check on that. So I can scout a guy and get the written report.
I have the potentials still on because I just want something else for drafting, even though in the past draft I did with full ratings on and everything, I tended to focus more on the stats generated for the draft pool and find guys that way, not really paying too much attention to the scouts anyway.
Haven't gotten to far into this post transition yet. I haven't tried to pull of a trade yet, I am still stuck in this brain storm mode as I have two players who still seem to have some skill left in the tank but they are really getting up there in age. One guy is like a medical marvel in that he can still play top notch SS at 41 years old...but having this old dude play such an important role on a team I feel should win the World Series...it makes me nervous. So my first try at trading in this new format will be probably dealing him or finding his replacement.
