There is a CPU fielder speed slider. One of the first things I did when I got the game was lower this slider to 40. I think I lowered it to 25 before I went to bed. I only saw too many singles hit by the CPU. I raised their contract and power before I went to bed though. I'm confident, that the few issues with this game can be fixed via the community or 2k/VC. The game is really fun, I was really tired when I got the game, but I stood up playing it, cause it's so addicting. I never experienced this with a baseball game. Usually after one game I've had enough.
