I actually feel the opposite, pertaining to the animations in Manage Only Mode.

I've actually been saving a bunch of replays of routine plays where the fielders just field the ball way too quickly; it looks really unnatural.
I think a lot of animations were sped up because of the thread a year or two ago that a lot of people were claiming that the fielders were double-pumping the ball and taking too many steps, etc.

But I see a lot of plays this year where the fielders throw on the run, or off-balanced, or just absolutely rushed for no reason. Anyone else agree?

Yeah, this goes to Fielder AI. I would hope that if it's possible going forward, that the speed of the fielders making plays would better match the urgency of the play. IRL, MLB players/fielders always sense or "know" how much time they have to make a play and very often somehow seem to get the runner just by a step. Sometimes they need to rush to make that happen, other times they can take their time to do that.

To go along with this, I also think if it's possible, that errors should happen more frequently when fielders are forced to speed up their plays. Fielders DO obviously make errors on routine plays, but I think MORE errors happen when they are forced to speed up their routine, when they're moving their feet, throwing across their body, etc. I don't know if this is already coded into the AI, but IMO it could certainly be improved.

This might definitely be the best version of the show ever the batting is tighter the pitching is still spot presentation is damn near perfect I actually made a RTTS with a 3B instead of a pitcher and its actually fun Sony has done a great job this year

What is up with the Attendance?

It appears that the attendance percentage is calculated wrong.

Do you think this will be fixed?

MLB 13 is the best Sports game ever made.
