The sabermetrical strategy preset hooks relievers quickly. That's what you are seeing there. I don't see any questionable AI decision. I only see questional human perception of the closer role.

Agreed. Especially when I am playing the game myself and not simming, if I feel that the closer is not having his best day and having control problems, etc... I would pull him and use someone else. Sometimes you just gotta use closer by committee.
Hence, no issues with computer AI pulling the closer.
