It's more of a pain in the butt to go through and delete them than it's worth. What's the point? Why even have the international prospect scouting if it is all crap? It's just a waste of time because, YAY I got a prospect whose potential is .05. So bascially can I just turn this once intriguing (and fun) factor off? Because now I just waste my time deleting these (prospect) pieces of crap.
Not my experience. I've had several start off say 25/36 who have developed into good players, one who is now 41/73 and about to press for MLB.
Yep quite a few who don't pan out or regress by the time they've developed, but more than enough who are worthwhile continuing to invest and persist with.
I do tend to focus on those who have positive personality traits like work ethic, leadership or IQ, abd/or adaptability.
