A setting of 110 pitches for a 16 (out of 20) endurance pitcher is about right on average, although you may want to lower the count slightly for a very young pitcher. (...95/13, 100/14, 105/15, 110/16, 115/17...etc.)
2) Also, check that you set the Hooking Starting Pitchers AND Pinch-Hit for Pitchers settings for ALL situations on the Strategy tabs- especially for the 7-8th innings and the 9th+ inning. The tab names are correct: towards Slow means slower to remove from game, so you may need to move the Hooking slider towards Quick in your case for later innings. Likewise, move the Pinch-Hit slider towards Frequently in the later innings.
3) Lastly, I believe the AI uses your strategy settings as a rough guide for its' own strategy decisions too. Just a guess, but it seems to roughly follow my own changes.
Hope this helps!

Thanks for the info. #2 I did long ago, but I never looked at #1. I'll check it out. But even if I hard code
all the pitchers in my 4-team organization - at best, a stop-gap solution, I still feel the module is broken for the default parameters and for your #3. Thanks again.
