Yank him.......! My owner pays me to win.
What I like about the game is the tough choices you have to make in order to win on a consistent basis. This is just one of the many examples you have to manage through.
I have been in similiar situations and found on many occassions that with a pitcher being reported as tired does really mean something! I would think the odds are very small getting through unscathed at LEAST six more batters. Possible...not probable. Strikeouts go down...walks go up...ground ball go down...deep fly balls go up....hard hit balls that use to go for doubles in the alleys now end up in alleys across the street!!! Many a time I try to stretch a SP/MR for one or two more batters in order for pinch hitting considerations in my next at bat. Sometimes I get the bear........sometimes the bear gets me. A lot of factors come into play depending on the situation. That's why I enjoy the game especially in the play mode vs sim. That's why we get paid the big bucks in the manager mode.
