I just haven't gone through each team eyet.
The only reason I can gather is that the AI is over evaluating fielding. If they were reasonably close in ratings I could buy it but they're trading a 7.5 WAR player for a 0.7 WAR player and a 4.7 WAR player for another 0.7 one. I get the AI doesnt know their real life WAR but they can see the ratings. The only logical reason is the defense but even that isn't logical with as many wins as they are giving up...
I guess I could take the time to force start all of these players but A. that's time consuming and B. I've always seen the AI plays those guys until they drop. Like they won't substitute for them to keep them fresh until they damn near dead. There's no setting to control this that I know of. Do I have any other options? I tried changing the AI eval settings to all kinds of things and none seem to make a difference...

Did you do any tests to see if, somehow, the defensive player actually created more wins?
That's an idea that's been bandied about here recently.
