I could go on and on for days about this, since I play out all the games in my solo league, but here's my favorite example:

The AI, with the game tied in the bottom of the ninth, will get men on first and third, one out, and then bunt the runner from first to second. I have seen this happen maybe five times.

That kind of mistake is inexcusable. There are way, way, way, WAY too many examples of such "buggy thinking" that should be getting caught. Given the fact that attention to detail is not exactly OOTP's strong suit (to put it nicely), I'm not optimistic about this getting fixed. I'm even less optimistic when you say things like what you posted and give the game a pass on some truly wretched moves.
I just posted a thread about these types of things earlier today(or yesterday) the title is In Game Strategy Lacking? check it out!
