You say " I seem to have guys who jump straight to the majors that did not in real life". They did. The players in the draft DID play the following year in MLB.
If a player did very poorly on a low number of ABs or IPs, he may be rated better than that performance, which isn't reliable due to low sample size. He also may be rated better than that in his first year if his second year had a lot of ABs and he was very good (assuming you're using more than current year as basis).

I'm wondering if 1991 Twins is using historical minors? That could mean he is talking about guys that aren't entering the draft the offseason prior to their MLB debuts.
