Yeah, I've really not had a big enough sample size to make things worthwhile.

I use common sense to actually send the players and ask myself whether an MLB 3rd base coach would send them. If I see "the ball is very shallow and player X has a cannon for an arm", well, I'm not sending my catcher home from 3rd.

I've probably been thrown out 10% of the time using this very conservative strategy.
