But a lot of players will still miss those marks. A few even exceed those marks by quite a bit (meaning the scout report was way off). I've had a "Great Hitter" max at 15 Hitting for instance. While some "Good Hitters" have gotten as high as 16 Hitting. Or a "Very Good" maxing out at 19. Some of this is just the displayed Rating fuzziness at work, but probably some inaccuracy in the scouting as well. In general, most players will end up close to their scouting report ranges, but there are enough that don't that I wouldn't depend on it. |

dhoni2020 Joined: 09/07/2020 Posts: 4 Inactive | How is potential calculated and is potential the same as scouting report, i.e., is it off by any chance? A 20% off could mean a maximum change of 4 potential in either direction. I chose http://brokenbat.org/player/266393 in the last week draft based on his scouting report. But his pot is low compared to my liking. Please do let me know. |
