This is helpful to know, SteveP. I've been re-acquainting myself with BBW 5.5 lately. One of the remarkable things about BBW is the creation and utilization of different computer managers. Users have created dozens and dozens of different AI managers (each with noticeably different AI "personalities") for use in BBW. I found one site that sorts these managers according to decade. So, it's possible to create AI managers with tendencies appropriate to the era (i.e., relief pitcher usage, PH/PR usage, sac bunts, etc.). And remember, BBW has not been updated in about ten years. Even so, it is "ahead of its time" in a number of respects.
