Granted, they were all good players (they went from 7 claimants to 50-60) but still Let's hope draft season goes better, or i could be in big trouble, at least pitching side, in a couple of years

Gee, thanks, game engine. I didn't want to win that game anyway. Seriously, why is THIS guy: https://brokenbat.org/player/326568 Set to that? That's a perfectly natural setting for an MR2 who's gotten a late season call-up for some reps. Not. Updated Tuesday, March 19 2024 @ 4:26:41 pm PDT

When you pick up a player it always keeps the settings from the prior team, so its important to go fix them. Likely they were still just developing him, and wanted to get him lots of innings in the spring. Then there was no need to change the settings on a minor league player after spring.

I dont ditch too many pitchers in Spring but if I did they would still have infinity hooks and 150 pitch counts. Interestingly there is not separate Spring settings, so changing the settings in your spring roster will change it for them in League as well if they happen to appear in a game. I wish it were more widespread for teams to look at their minor league position settings. Prospects can come into the league without position knowledge of any realistic position they could play, and especially if older Asian League or International be very difficult to get position training for.

In a lost cause game, the AI manager will leave the pitcher in so he doesn't kill the arms of the rest of his bullpen. Besides, you can't really ruin the stats of a guy who has less than 10 innings pitched. His stats are meaningless at this point anyhow. The only thing padding his stats would do is give him a raise he didn't deserve a the end of the year. And then you would be paying $$$ for a bad pitcher.
