['94 EXPOS]

Def not a bug. *Edit here: I have never noticed that the pick from my Director is always taken by the following team. I will watch more closely. Note that sometimes if you click (sometimes repeatedly) the recommendation hot button your scout will change his recommendation to another player. That is why I originally said it was not a bug.*

You get the joy of having 4 different views of each prospect!

1. You can pick off the OSA scouting.

2. You can pick off your scouting staff ratings. These do not match with your Director's recomendation. It is an oddity that has been around since I have been playing OOTP. A somewhat helpful take here is to compare your scout's take with the OSA. If both are showing some potential in the same areas it CAN point to a greater chance of successful development.

3. You can take your Director's recommendation. I view this as your Director advising you of a 'sleeper' pick. Everyone sees him as junk but your Director sees something in him that may pay off in the future.

4. Or you can just pick a guy with a cool nickname!

I often alternate which view I follow for each pick depending on what my own 'expert' knowledge tells me to go.

*Another (just my experience) tip: Be wary of pitchers with poor 'control' potential. I have drafted many a pitcher with electric stuff and waited for them to hit the broad side of a barn door only to be disappointed in the end (a select few made it through to the majors).

The draft process should leave you feeling that it is clear as mud!
