So, the title was a bit long, but here goes:

I'm running the patched PC version.

I've been playing a game where I simmed the '92 season then took over the '93 Marlins. I've had the rosters autofill to have the minors stocked, and so that I'd actually get a few young players in the draft. However, I've noticed that the autocreated minor leaguers are very often:

Very slow runners, have poor baserunning instincts and are bad at stealing bases
Poor bunters, both for sacrificing and for hits

Has anyone else been finding this? They seem to be alright hitters (or have at least decent potential) and are alright fielders, but often really horrible in the other in the running and bunting categories.
