I didn't notice this happening in my WBC tournament that has no age restrictions.
My point is that perhaps the temporary players are a tad bit too high especially when there are age ranges setup? I hope age and the country's baseball reputation is taken into consideration when temporary players are created from certain countries. A team of temporary spanish players shouldn't go 6-1 in olympic play and then beat Cuba for the championship. I mean yes it can happen but that was just a bit too dominating in my opinion.

I've seen this during the WBC with China, as is the only team that can't complete a squad with real players, some phantom guys are much better than real players.
You will see Chinese pitchers with real major league stuff instead of having rookie league (or even less) level created players.
Unfortunately in that scenario, teams with mixed players (half real-half phantom), lineups are inaccurate. Phantom players are starters instead of just filling the squad.
