Here is what I posted and I'm not trying to be argumentative. Just trying to figure this out...
'm curious as to why this is happening. These videos are franchise manage mode - default sliders - defense all auto.

In the first video Noda is 55 PWR R but the defense is deep. He is 85 PWR L

In the second video Paredes is PWR L 66 and the outfield is deep. He is 82 PWR R

In the third video Raley is 81 PWR R and the outfield depth is normal. He is 54 PWR L.
It appears when calculating outfield depth the teams including my user controlled team are adding the handedness numbers together and dividing by 2 to determine depth. That's not a big deal but what I'm wondering is whether the number the defense is seeing is an accurate reflection of the batter's attributes. For example is Raley's actual PWR R 67.5 instead of 81 with 67 being the sum of 81 + 54 ÷ 2.
This would be valuable to know regarding roster construction and lineup.
Thank you.
...The depth is always like that for these players for both handedness. Never changes. My question is whether the outfield depth is accurate or is the player card accurate. Valuable information to have when assembling a roster and making out a lineup.
I suspect the fact that I used press box view and can see the outfielders prior to every pitch is why I see this and others who use the pitcher and batter views do not.
