I share your frustration with the AI and with the AI in all games of this type mking55. Speaking only in intuitive terms (as I'm not a programmer) I think your expectations for any AI to come close to the human brain (when said brain has the huge advantage of historical knowledge) in a simulation of a game as complex as baseball are a tad on the high side at this moment in time. I think chess AI is about on par with humans now, but chess is nowhere near as complex as all the things involved in this sim of multiple moving parts and how long were they working on it before they got it right? Point out the flaws? Absolutely, that's the only way this game's going to get better. Complain bitterly and sit on your hands and wait for Markus to make it all better, rather than seeing if there are some settings you could use that would get you closer to what you want? Ok, that's your choice.

I'll keep searching for ways around the limitations that come with any AI in any career baseball sim of this kind on the market and be happy with the vast majority of stuff in this game that actually works. You keep winning 120 games a year and complaining about the minutiae that don't work. Just do me one favour. When people go out of their way to try and offer workarounds to you, which is what this thread is all about (well not just workarounds for you or suggestions by me, but it's an attempt to pool together ideas to get around this issue), try not to take a steaming dump on them.
