Scouting Report

What's the point to ask for a scouting report for one player, if we have a scouting report label already in the player's profile?

Get a newer one.

I think another aspect of it is that the more reports you have, the more accurate they become.

Moved to the Newbie thread.

Thanks for asking and answering that. I was having the same thoughts. So many things to learn.

Ask away!

As long as you're agreeing with me, I approve.

In regards to pitching and hitting coaches, how much do their ratings matter in regards to handling vets, rookies, etc?

Say I have a pitching coach with Legendary skills in A-Ball, but he's terrible with rookies.
Will that have an impact on my young guys?
I was under the impression that these types of ratings were only really used by the Managers and Bench coaches, but not so much the specialty coaches.

Thanks!

I'm not sure if that is known exactly.

However, I don't believe the manual explicitly says that it will not have an impact on your guys for coaches in support roles. So I normally try to get guys that handle players well, just in case.

It has an effect. How much, no one knows.

What's the typical timeline for BLB to upgrade versions?

I don't know.

Considering this league's stance on control, I really doubt guys here will want to have coaches making decisions for them or denying requests. I can easily see that feature being disabled when we move over to OOTP 16, whenever that is.

As for coach ratings, while they are shown to us differently, the affect is still vague.

I expected so, but we won't have ratings anymore, all will be about reputation
