Re: CPU Putting a non Catcher in

In my rtts the Blue Jays had a left handed CF as their everyday 2nd baseman. I mean, I was in 2034, and things in this game start to break down that far in the future.

Re: CPU Putting a non Catcher in

This happened again in my game last night and it's pretty bad. It needs to be fixed. The most bizarre thing is, my CPU opponents still had their backup catcher available to them on the bench.

In the bottom of the 8th they put a LF position player from the bench into the game at SS. Then it took the guy who was playing SS and had him play catcher. Of the 25 or so pitches that were thrown that inning, this SS now playing catcher caught the ball maybe 5 times and had at least 10 passed balls and the rest of the pitches he could not catch were just dropped balls in front of him. All with a perfectly healthy backup catcher still sitting on their bench. Why?

Re: CPU Putting a non Catcher in

Here is the relevant bug report:

http://theshownation.com/topics/1750...d-balls-glitch

I'd imagine this gets worse as franchise goes deeper and CPU GM starts messing with rosters not ensuring backup catchers to be around. Lack of positions players are often problem down in minors.

Currently two center fielders are platooning at catcher and every ball is at least dropped if not a passed ball and any base runner is gifted an automatic trip to at least third.
Wow this is a huge problem! Hopefully they can patch this.

Re: CPU Putting a non Catcher in

I've only seen it happen once in my first two months of my franchise, with the Brewers. I didn't realize it at first until I was batting and I could hear the catch dropping every single pitch that I let go or missed. It was pretty funny. However, I haven't seen it again.
