This is an illusion....in real life the best players in high school and college turn out to be the best players in MLB.....some are busts and some players that weren't rated quite as high turn out to be better, but even they were good players as amateurs......in real life guys that hit .180 in high school don't make it to the pros....but in OOTP, guys that hit .180 could turn out to be superstars.....this is because the ratings that drive the stats in feeder leagues are basically random.....if you do a draft knowing what the potential ratings actually are (according to your scout), you will end up with a more realistic draft....some busts and some low round surprises.
And when you do a feeder league and draft only with stats, only you are looking at the stats...the AI is looking at the ratings......so your draft is basically random (college players are not quite random), while the AI is picking based on the ratings......
