So, here is my draft scouting file from last season. I'll explain a little of the file, but I won't give away exactly how it's done. As I've professed in the past when referring to my file, it's far from perfect and I don't always follow my scouting grades.
There's some limitations to what can be exported with Mogul and many times instances where seeing the player's amateur stats would either raise or drop the player significantly. The best example in 2054 is Manuel Poblano. By all means his projected vitals look awesome, but his HRs were a concern and would have dropped him steadily.
Info
- There's 3 arc types: Contact, Balanced, and Power. As of now, there are no arc types for pitchers.
- Adjustments for age, low or high health, if the player has dropped, already developed, and positional scores (taken from B-R and my own opinions on positional value in Mogul).
- The file takes a look at the player's current rating and perceived upside to come up with a future vitals score.
- Position players can get further adjustments for low contact and pitchers can get a further adjustment for low control.
Now, maybe you can figure out exactly how I do my scouting file and can copy it for the current draft. That's good. If not, I plan on posting these after each draft, so eventually you'll know where my file ranked draftees.
