Similar situation here...

Played out 2003 as the Mets using the latest Total Minors roster...after a horrendous spring and summer we were respectable in the fall and I had high hopes for 2004.

SO!

Season opener vs Houston, the game goes long, 15 innings. I am much more conservative about pulling my pitchers, so I still have a MR or two left but Houston has Wagner on the mound. He goes red, and I'm thinking - woohoo! I can start hitting this guy no problem now and win the game....!

Well, he gets out of the inning, the Astros pinch hit for him in the top of the next inning, and when I come out to bat in the bottom of the 15th, there he still is - on the mound! What's WORSE, he is VERY fatigued and STILL set em down in order.

Naturally, when Houston comes up again they score two runs and I get so perturbed that I quit the game and start over.

Any chance of a fix?
