After owning this game for many years, here are my thoughts...
The first step in fixing a problem, is admitting that you have a problem. And there is definitely a problem with prospects.
I am now 11 years into my Tigers sim. That is 220 rounds worth of draft picks. How many innings pitched or at-bats have my OOTP-generated draft picks or International Prospects completed? ZERO. A big, fat ZERO. Now, maybe I suck...but even a blind squirrel finds a nut. And I'm not even looking for nuts at this point...shoot, I'd take some partially digested mouse vomit at this point. It would be better than showing up at Scott Hatteberg's house at midnight and begging him with hat in hand to come bat cleanup and be the focal point of my anemic offense for the coming season.
Thankfully, my frustrated owner is not allowed to fire me, as with this track record I should be living in a van down by the river, not running a multi-billion dollar franchise into the ground. But here we are!
I do have faith that OOTP can fix this problem but in the meantime, I am ceasing all playing of the game as the prospecting is my favorite part and it's an unmitigated disaster at the moment.
