I just did my draft in my long term sim and before the draft pool was announced I decided to start fresh and deleted all of my draft classes so I wouldn't get any of those older players who were being held back. In my new draft pool I got a fresh class in all 4 years and the mix of batters and pitchers was about 50%. My draft looked fine and yes I did noticed that in my last round the last 15 or so picks were all pitchers but the rest of the earlier rounds were fine. I also no longer saw late round draftees demanding salary bonuses so that was fixed.

I don't know if what people are seeing is the result of the bug that saw a lot of late draftees demanding a big bonus which caused teams not to sign them and they went back into the pool diluting the mix or not. So far in this fresh draft it was fine. I do set my draft to create an extra 5 rounds of players that don't get to be drafted. So is the problem the draft pool that is available that is causing teams to draft only pitchers or batters or is it the actual draft AI? I can tell you my draft AI looks fine but I'll have to see how this new class keeps looking in the next couple of drafts as players move up and down the classes because of JUCO, going to 4 year colleges, and returning to school because they were not drafted or not signing status changes. Also as far as I can tell the problem of draftees not being in the right draft class and becoming 19 year old high schoolers or 5 year college students seems to be fixed.
