Just as an experiment, I created a player on the free agent screen and selected "DH" as the position. I edited him to make him rather phenomenal. I wanted to see how his career would play out. Like MLB, I have one DH subleague and one non-DH subleague, so I also wanted to see how he might be valued differently by each. I made him a free agent.

First, nobody wanted to sign him, so I found a team that could use him and had them sign him. He was immediately put on waivers by them and claimed by another team. The other team sat him on the bench. Despite being really incredible, he was only used as a pinch hitter. Then they traded him -- to a team in the league that doesn't have a DH! I took the reins and promptly traded him back to the other league, to yet another team, who also wouldn't play him.

Then I made one little edit to him: I gave him some experience at 1B.

Suddenly, the AI stuck him in the lineup at DH and he currently has accumulated a .334 career batting average with 144 hr in 2085 AB and a .438 OBP.

This guy should not be getting left out of lineups in DH leagues just because he has no fielding ratings.
