Yeah, I said the same thing to myself, because I get dam tired of being told it's crap when I know it's not. I did some extensive testing in 12, and found compelling evidence, but was never sure when "enough" was enough for the sample size crowd, and just quit. Changed my leagues to the unbaseball travesty the DH, and moved on.

FWIW, I did extensive testing and it "seemed" as though the problem was not only limited to those playing out games, and not only limited to the human player, but it was also limited to the human player pinch hitting FOR THE PITCHER.

For some reason pinch hitting for position players didn't show the same dreadful downfall.

And this will be my lost post in this thread because I'm not going to get into it again.
