Doesnt apply to me. I generally have 11-12 guys I split time in the lineup with. So, I usually only 1, maybe 2 guys get 150 starts. And I notice a lot of the AI players get 155-162 games. (i generally see at least one 3B get 162 games due to the fact the computer mysteriously refuses to carry another player with any knowledge of 3B playing). So, if anything it is the opposite.
Actually, I dont have much problem with the hitters, it is the pitchers that gets aggravating. Like Tate, my starters almost always explode in the playoffs. Not just one starter either. All the starters, 90% of the time. I have won the WS a couple of times (though not one that went 7-games). But, I have had to get very creative with my pitching staff to do it. Starting relievers for 1 inning, then putting in the starter. Taking 3 guys and pitching them 3 innings each. I will say my bullpen does pretty good in postseason, but they are almost always pitching down by 3+ runs way too much.
