    Russell Martin just tried to bunt for a hit with the bases empty up 8-0 in my RTTS

    Something must change. This is unacceptable. Really kills the realism. Oh and he was almost safe because of the combination of everyone's amazing bunting skills and my pitcher/catcher's complete lack of urgency every time this happens, which is at least 2-3 times per game regardless of opponent or situation.

        I've had Trout try to bunt for a hit before. This game goes a little overboard on that in RTTS. As a first baseman it seems I see about 3 to 5 attempts per game by the other team.

          Even the CPU knows that bunting is OP in this game.

                This was a big issue for me in RTTS last year, hate to see that it may still be there. I got so sick of seeing it, it was one of the reasons I had my RTTS player change to an outfielder.

                  I can sympathize......
                  A few years back...I would edit every player(who shouldn't be drag bunting for a hit) to have his DRAG BUNT to 0.

                  I'm not sure if the attempts are still tied to that though(I seem to remember that changing)

                    Miguel Cabrera tried bunting with runners on 1st and 2nd in my RttS.

                      I don't know about you, but seeing 3 bunt singles per game seems like a big deal to me.

                        It is definitely still in RTTS. Drives me crazy as a third baseman.

                          Is it a specific problem with being an infielder in RTTS? Does it still happen if you are an outfielder?

                            I had an outfielder last year and do not remember seeing this issue.

                              I don't know if they bunt for hits any more or less when you play the outfield but at least in the outfield it won't force you to watch their bunt attempts.
