The issue is that in real life if you keep taking pitches, the pitcher on the other end will catch on and start taking off larger and larger portions of the plate as your hitters refuse to swing. They'll also catch on if you religiously refuse to swing at every other pitch (which is something I've seen people talk about doing here) or always take the first pitch (I remember the Cubs, actually, seeing some stat that said that people who put the first pitch into play hit like .330 and tried to exploit the other way around... the result was that they rarely got good pitches to hit that first pitch and hit something like .260 in 0-0 counts).
The game isn't going to catch all of that and perhaps should not be expected to. Is crafting an AI that can detect "take pitch" patterns *really* something that you want Markus to spend resources on? Because to be honest, it's just about dead last on my list, perhaps slightly above hobbit league functionality.
