fwiw, here at the end of the 2025 sim season is the same CF fielding stats sorted by IP and with positional rating shown for comparison to the out years. Same parameters. 100% scouting (set & rescouted at outset) and evolution off.
Hand-created players and the game-generated players aren't a 1:1 comparison.

Also, the players in question don't have terrible fielding stats relative to their DEF ratings. The 1 only has a -11.9 ZR. The OP said players like him were holding the team back, and it's easy to score a lot of runs on AI teams because they can't field...

FWIW, I simmed to the break and adjusted to a 1-100 scale... I don't see there issue.

We can't argue that those players in question shouldn't have that many starts if we don't even know who else is available on the team.

What does the 1 DEF CF batting ratings look like? Plenty of real-life examples of teams sacrificing a -12 ZR CF in favor of him getting on base. Can the best defensive CF on the team hit at the MLB level?
