When he is batting, consider a SP tired if he will become tired after facing the next X batters.
Let me know if the language makes sense or if you have any questions.

New Manager Prefs - defensive PHers and PH for soon to be tired pitchers
January 13, 2012 at 10:06PM View BBCode
I added a small enhancement today. You can tell Abe to PH for pitchers that will be tired soon. It is listed on the Pitchers manager pref page. The language states:When he is batting, consider a SP tired if he will become tired after facing the next X batters.
Let me know if the language makes sense or if you have any questions.

Under Substitutions, I've added this:
If 2 players meet the PH critera and it is not my last at bat, (Use the better hitter | Use the player that meets the criteria for defense if possible)
What this will do is that if you can save a player and still use a pretty good pinch hitter, then Abe will use that player. For instance, let's say you have a LF about to bat, and two qualified PHers on the bench, one plays Catcher and the other plays LF, and the catcher is a tad better hitter. Today, Abe would use the catcher, then the next inning use the LF as a defensive replacement. What I'm trying to accomplish is that Abe will use the LF as the pinch hitter in this case.
Let me know if this makes any sense, or if you have any recommendations on the language of this pref at all.

I added another manager preference, and rewrote a lot of the logic for pinch hitters in the process. So please keep a close eye on this.Under Substitutions, I've added this:

That would be a nice advancement and help prevent situations where your best RP comes up to bat unnecessarily.

Does the latter adjustment potentially lead to double switches?That would be a nice advancement and help prevent situations where your best RP comes up to bat unnecessarily.

No, double switches would be a pretty big project. These were just 2 quick bandaids.Tyson
