I haven't run a career sim since last Summer, but I recall seeing leagues evolve in this manner. And after looking into it, I determined that one of the biggest contributing factors was the CPU GM's inability to recognize and develop pitching talent. In the first 5 or so years of a new fictional league, the pitchers are acquired in the initial draft and are used appropriately. But as these guys get old and retire, the next wave of pitchers just doesn't meet major league standards. The CPU would commit various offenses, including overusing very young pitchers in the majors, keeping aging vets around too long, and not properly developing the best prospects. If you notice that your pitching staff shines above the rest of the league, you should investigate this possibility further. If you are running a league of all CPU run teams, then you should also be suspicious of this management flaw.
