I'd be fine with the thread dying if people didn't keep using straw man arguments against me like the one you just made. I have repeatedly stated in this thread that I want different managers to manage differently but it should be within the parameters seen in MLB. When was the last time you saw a MLB manager, "sabermetric" or not, remove their closer with a 3 run lead in the ninth after giving up a solo shot to the lead off hitter. Hell, when was the last time a MLB manager removed their closer in a one run game after giving up a lead off home run? It just isn't realistic. And it certainly isn't "sabermetric".

And does anyone want to address the pinch hitting decision of the AI going against the pinch hitters rankings on the depth chart?
