Bunt Fest

Is it just me, or does the AI like to bunt a lot? I have my strategies all tweaked down to never bunt... don't do it... ever. I've even tweaked individual player strategies to "swing the freakin' bat and don't even think about bunting... ever". Then I see my clean-up hitter bunting in 4th inning. It's not just my side, either. I see the opposition lay down plenty of bunts at inappropriate times as well (which doesn't bother me as much, but still). Suddenly it's 1918 instead of 2018?

Yeah, I looked back at last season and saw that Justin Turner, who I had in the #2 hole ended up with 42 sacrifice bunts. Stupid. I had bunting turned down to one spot over never.

There was a problem in the previous season that should have been fixed. I'll have another look

Edit: Checked it, it's fine now. It was a bit wonky last season.
