If we'd do it 100% perfect though then the game would be unplayably slow, hence we have to make some compromises.
In other instances, often users are misinterpreting certain settings (as happened here with the 3-year fielding recalc enabled) or simply having a different opinion than the AI or have set the AI evaluations in a weird way or this or that. There are a million reasons... I often look at league files where it seems something strange is going on, but in 95% of the cases there is a logical explanation for the game's behavior.

Markus - we go way back discussing this
I have posted several screen shots where players are put into positions they are not rated for / qualified for. I had a game the other day where my backup 1B started at second base and my 2 second baseman road the pine. The not-rated-for-2b second baseman made 7 errors in that game - 7...
All I ask is that another option be added to the choices of splits or traditional - to block players from playing positions they are not rated for - a sweeter option would be to set a threshold of the rating that keeps a player from playing a position they are barely qualified for - wait - I am becoming a font of ideas...
How about an option to set a threshold for being a starter and another one for being a substititute?
What do you think????
