In this instance, the AI might well be light years ahead of real baseball.
I vehemently disagree with paying elite "closers" that kind of stupid money.
Kimbrel's contract: 2014: $7M, 2015: $9M, 2016: $11M, 2017: $13M
2018 Team Option: $13M ($1M buyout)
For someone who will pitch 75-85 innings a season. Yes, he'll pitch them at an absurdly high level, but... really?
Total misallocation of resources, IMO. The 'save" stat needs to be done away with or rewritten.

It's amazing
How you make your face just like a wall
How you take your heart and turn it off
How I turn my head and lose it all
And it's unnerving
How just one move puts me by myself
There you go just trusting someone else
Now I know I put us both through hell

Everyone knows it's spelled "TRAID", not trade
