All-Star ballots

HuachucaThunder · 05-10-2015, 02:29 PM

I think it is a great addition to the game to allow a person to be able to submit their ballot, but the thing I am finding rather odd is that players are under the position that have not had one at bat in the majors. Does the AI just place random players or does it look at ratings?
I am currently playing a 16 team 2 division fictional set up and this is happening a lot in the infield and outfield choices.

I have seen this a lot as well.

It takes the position from the players positions with a rating just like FA. It's kind of annoying but at the same time it's probably a good thing it does that too. Since the AI can and will play people out of their listed position.

The position filters display all players that have any rating at the chosen position.

I created a custom view that includes GP/GS from the fielding stats so that as I flip through the positions, I can see who has actually played there.

When no stats shown is because they been injured prior season started but is hugely popular. .. every time I see this occurs I check player page and is confirmed on 60 day DL
