I'll admit this can be argued as subjective, but it is something I believe to be objectively true. I believe draftees are created with improper fielding and pitching ratios. I've compared these ratings to the quickstart draft which uses real MLB prospects instead of game generated ones.

Ratings that seem okay: IF RNG, IF ARM, OF ERR, OF ARM
Ratings that are too low: TDP ratings are only 92% of the Quickstart average. IF ERR is only 94%, OF RNG - 86%, C ARM - 84%, C ABL - 89%

3rd pitch: Most pitchers generated for the draft are relievers and only relievers due to the absence of a third quality pitch. In the quickstart draft, 78% of the pitchers have a 3rd quality pitch. Of course many of those pitchers will not fully develop and turn into relievers. However, in OOTP generated drafts, somewhere around 33% of pitchers have even the potential of a third quality pitch.
