I have done roughly 10 inaugural drafts. The AI has some problems with them. I think the reliever issue is one of them but more than that I do not think the AI "knows" how to build an organization or understands the concept of sacrificing. I find it very easy to build the top minor leagues by 400 "points" (in the Top Minors Report) and still be highly competitive in year 2 of the league.
I have seen the problem the OP is talking about. I do not think the AI properly assess the value of a #11 SP vs a top MR. It is not isolated to one AI organization, it seems to be universal. I find it very easy to build a top rated (no scouts) bullpen late in the draft when the AI is selecting 20/20 SP that will need 3-4 talent bumps to make the majors.
I think the problem is coding the AI to see the organization and "know" when to take talent at a less important position.
