Which was true in the era I'm looking at. And the pitching staff weren't pigeon-holed as rigidly as they are in OOTP. As it stands, it's a trade-off problem, which you have to decide based on the era you are playing.
One option is to increase the frequency of "hooking relievers" somewhat in the team strategy pages. Closers will come in more often once the AI manager has gone to the bullpen. Beyond that, I don't know any way to fine-tune this.
