I know my team is dreadful but dealing with that and looking at prospects whose potential ratings are unrealistically bad isn't a lot of fun. Potential ratings shouldn't decline by league level as much.
But it also could be the draft classes are poor. The colleges don't look bad this year but in the IFHS of the 26 batters with 2.5 stars or more (OSA) only one is hitting .300 - this is high school ball for godsakes - and a good number barely hitting their weight. The overall league batting average in the IHS the last three years was .201, .189, .198. And the IFHS is in the .220s. As far as colleges, the ICOL has held steady but the USCBA batting averages have dropped 50 points since the league began. My concern is whether this is our future. Believe me a league of teams that hit like mine isn't going to be fun.
Does anyone have an assessment so far of whether talent is declining among recent picks?
In prior seasons I used to gather this information but have not done so yet as we moved to 2018 and the rating do change when we switch versions and they tend to recover. am unsure if this will continue to get worse or better. We have had a few draft classes in that were very very and a few that were very very good, it all depends and I think it is more RG than anything else.
