The Tigers with Prince Fielder would CONSISTENTLY leave Fielder in the game at first base even though he was a bigger defensive liability than Cabrera at the spot, while pulling Cabrera for Don Kelly's defense. Don Kelly, as you probably know, is also capable of playing both first and third base.

I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume for now that you are missing the context. So I'll explain it again. It has been argued that we shouldn't expect the OOTP AI to rearrange the defensive alignment in the infield to the most optimal possible because in real life most players don't move around much. So here the argument isn't about it being a "game" but instead about realism. But let's forget that for now. Let's look at the example I posted previously in this thread of the second baseman getting pinch hit for and the OOTP AI bringing in an infielder and playing him at third base, where he is rated a "1" and moving the third baseman to second where the two of are basically equivalent defensively. So if they aren't supposed to be moved to improve the defensive alignment, why are they being moved to make the defensive alignment worse?

I believe I accurately stated your argument in the paragraph above. Feel free to correct my errors.
