If you want to evaluate pitchers down there, look at BB:SO ratios and the bb/9 k/9. This is more indicative of true ability. Conversely, look at extra base hits and slugging percentages for hitters.
Once a guy is in A ball and still can't hit a lick... then you may have a Bubba Starling on your hands.

Right. Complexes, Summer Leagues, the stats couldn't matter less for the reasons both of you have mentioned and others as well.
That being said, if literally everyone has ERAs from 7-16 and are hitting under .250 with low slugging then it might not just be a complex issue, it might be an issue with the league modifiers.
So if you could attach a screenshot of your league modifiers, that would be a help in checking out whether there's a real issue or not.
