That's kind of how I would read his comments. Are you going to be a good scout if you've never watched baseball? Of course not. But do you have to go get a degree in scouting? Hell, did you have to even be a good player to be a good scout? Of course not. Both are equally ridiculous. You can start anywhere, have studied anything in school (or not gone), be any age, etc. Credentials seem to matter very little. It's pretty wide open, actually.
