Per the Manual, SPEED controls the chance of grounding into a DP. So check that.
Speed 33, unchanged from middle of last year or from this winter (I routinely order reports on all my players every 1/1 and 7/1).

The three players who are roughly tied for next worst have speed 82, 44, and 8. "Randy Stone" and the guy with 44 usually hit #s 2 and 3, not always in the same order, so the guys Stone is most often forcing are that guy and, especially, the leadoff hitter, speed 113. So speed probably doesn't matter to getting forced.

There has to be another factor besides speed. The question is: what?
