Lefty Middle Infielders -- Not Mike Squires

shercot · 03-01-2008, 01:38 AM

About once per week of scheduled games, an AI-run team puts a lefthanded-throwing player at second, short, or third. Has this been discussed? Any plans to make it stop happening?

Thanks.

I take it from the lack of responses that this doesn't really bug anybody else....

The AI plays infielders there because they are properly rated to play there. The issue isn't that they are played, but that left-handers are generated with the ability to play those positions.

I know that there have been numerous requests made to change this by a few people who are bothered by it. I do not know if there are plans to change it for the upcoming version, but it is definitely a known situation.
