I'm open to correction from someone more knowledgeable on this but I'm pretty sure that none of the changes made to create lower rated draftable players have created any more predictability. At least not in the sense that late round picks will never turn into MLB players or that all first round picks will.

I think the predictability issue was a response to the statement that Righty Groove quoted from Markus earlier in this thread, which seems to imply more consistency in talent retention.
