Hey I noticed the shift tendencies of managers are off based on the shift data from last year.

Brad Ausmus used the shift the least in the American League (AL teams shift more often due to the DH rule) but has an "above average" tendency to use the shift in OOTP 16. Mike Scioscia used the shift 2nd least often in the AL but has a "very high frequency" to use the shift in OOTP 16. Many other manager's tendencies to use the shift seem off based on this data as well..
