CPU Fielding? Back to 22?

[Blind_Bleeder_PSN]

Is it just me, or does it seem that MTO CPU fielders are back to the way they were in 22? Even the worst fielders are getting to balls in the gaps. It seems the only way to get a hit (besides by bunting) is to hit a ground ball up the middle (if 2B or SS aren't standing there) or to put one out.
