Dunn, Thome, et al and the defensive shift

I am playing with one of these guys on my team that routinely faces the extreme defensive shift that Dunn & Thome usually have to face. I was wondering...if I hit the other way with him enough in my franchise or dropped down a bunt or two ala Alex Gordon this year--will the CPU adjust or it will stick with the tendencies for pulling listed on the player card?

Nobody knows if the CPU logic will adjust if I beat the shift enough?

I'll give it this one bump and let it die if not...

I'm not sure. I've only ever played with Papi in my franchise, and I don't care if everybody including the pitcher and catcher were in right, he couldn't lay down a bunt and beat it to first. Lol.

I'd like to know too though.

No, it doesn't have player specific shifts.

I'm confused by this because they are shifting on specific players--are you saying that it is not dynamic and won't adjust? It is what I am assuming you are saying and assumed would be the case.
