It sounds to me like you'd be much better suited to fictional play because you cannot divorce yourself from the names

Im not a 'fan' of any team, or any 'player.' You have to attempt to understand that, first, before reading my posts. I knew I should have posted Player A, Player B, Player C. I, frankly, don't look at the names and care, at all. My entire argument is based on ratings / statistics. If you read back, you'll notice that.

You said you're in September, finish the season and see what happens.

I did finish. See the post above about Baez K'ing in the wild card game.

The game, or your AI manager?

I can't answer.... that's something the developers would have to answer. Whichever it is, though, and
if this is the case (that the AI / manager wants a exceptionally small increase in power [Player A 55 vs Player B 50]), then it would seem that it likely should be scaled back a bit for the game's sake.

the second you hit "Sim Day" real life went out the window.

I'm not looking for 'real life.' I'm looking for the game to mimic the settings that are set-up.

Maybe he wanted to give Baez a real shot because he had a ton of potential

Are you saying the game makes a decision like this as in it is programmed into the logic? To 'give a shot' to a player with high potential and then sit him when he struggles, as in it is almost a 'conscious' decision? That would be a remarkable programming feat.
The bottom line is:
Player A: 322 Plate App., .282 - .332 - .480
Player B: 203 Plate App., .228 - .266 - .394
Player C: 243 Plate App., .330 - .374 - .542
If the game is set up to play 'stats only' - why is Player B starting over either Player A or Player C? Its a legitimate question ... and understanding its answer will either help me understand what the game is doing or help me adjust a setting (but which setting?)
Further more (with all defensive ratings essentially the same):
Player A:
Con: 50/55
Gap: 70/70
HR: 55/55
Eye: 40/55
AvoidK: 45/45
Player B:
Con: 45/55
Gap: 50/60
HR: 65/75
Eye: 45/50
AvoidK: 30/35
Player C:
Con: 60/75
Gap: 70/75
HR: 50/65
Eye: 45/60
AvoidK: 55/60
If the game is set up to play 'ratings only' - why is Player B starting over either Player A or Player C? Its a legitimate question ... and understanding its answer will either help me understand what the game is doing or help me adjust a setting (but which setting?) And if the answer to the 'ratings only' question is that 55 power vs 50 power trumps all the other ratings, I'm asking...doesn't it seem like maybe something (AI or manager setting) should be scaled a bit?
