What's funny is that none of those sites you point out are used to any serious degree by any professional scout. They are used by mainly fans and journalists. But what do I know. Oh. Wait. I was a professional at this in my former life and made actual money (albeit not very much!!!!!) evaluating and then teaching it.
Defreitas is the closest thing. His is a legit evaluation. Of a prospect. I hope he's making money at what he does with the site because generally there's a reason most people don't make their careeer out of scouting baseball.
Lots of them become....lawyers. Gasp.
And you're talking about potential and justifying current ratings relative to MLB in this video game. You're not addressing the issue but just throwing a tantrum.
Maybe I am wrong and maybe you've seen Otani play on many occasions, spoken to him, talked to his teammates, coaches and determined that he's a 6 or higher in every aspect and the best chance to succeed in MLB since Mark Prior. I doubt it. My game would cost a lot more than $35 if that were the case.
You know what? I haven't seen him or evaluated him either. That's sort of my point. It's just I admit it and apply what generally happens with prospects - in the real world - and question his actual, not potential ratings in the video game.
I find it interesting you take it so personally to the point of cursing at me. Maybe you're on the roster team?
No matter. This is the last I'll beat my head against the wall on the subject.
