Scouting Discoveries are scouted as Amateurs because they have ZERO professional time. That's what being amateur is means!!!!!!!! Teams gain them no matter what. Scouting just pulls back the veil on their abilities.
They don't gain professional service time until they are promoted to your teams minor league system. Then they are scouted as Minor Leaguers.
If they get cut with Zero pro time they are still amateurs. If you promote them to minor leagues and they get 1 day of pro time when they are on the free agent list they are scouted as major league.
Same thing with draft picks. You cut a draft pick before he plays 1 day. He is still an amateur when he is a free agent. But you cut him after he has 1 day then he scouts as a major leaguer on the free agent list.
International Scouting is only for players on current international rosters. Say your a Japan GM everyone on a MLB roster is now scouted as an International Player. Because they are on the current roster. If they are cut again counted as Major League.
This is how its always been in the manual for scouting budget and scouting gm. No idea where this talk of discoveries comes into it. Discoveries has basically nothing to with scouting except to show what their ratings are while they are in your IFA system
