We know the game simulates batting and pitching well so it follows that in the aggregate it must simulate fielding well. Your issue is with the details.

With a lot of work you could compile total chances by position at the game and compare that with what is at baseball reference. If that is a close match and it can be concluded the game simulates fielding in detail well.

But the knowledge that you are seeking, the SS 2b situation I described, has almost zero effect in the game.
