Does this make sense? I'm not sure.

Just to throw another thing out there- is there any chance the scouting budget to accuracy metric has been adjusted this year? I'm seeing different results as well for my farm systems- I have found that using scouting recommendations usually gives me more late round sleepers though. One last thing- do you find that the scouting recommendations have a tendency to be hitter focused and/or need-based? When I let the draft auto-complete I often end up with 8 pitchers and 32 batters.
