The reasoning abive for why it's happening seems sound though.

This is the AI. Doesn't really make sense because in his minimal starts he usually hit more HR's then the fringe RF's who are only good at power but not by much. It would make better sense if these guys had tons of power.

Im thinking power has too much of a influence because Farrell prefer offense the same amount as he does power yet Pedroia is in the dog house despite having overall better batting ratings than his replacements.

Also once Brock Holt end up at RF he's plugged in at leadoff and stinks it up. That could be Pedroia leading off while batting close to .290 like he does in most of my sims.
