Did you guys even read this thread? Good Lord. There have been several suggestions as to how to address this (including have bullpen coach sit them down automatically after a set period) but removing part of baseball strategy (deciding when to warm up whom) IS NOT A VIABLE SOLUTION and a large faction of your customer base has made that clear already!
Don't justify it.
Fix.
It.

You say real pitchers don't get tired warming up. Do you have any actual proof of that? How do you know that they don't, are you a pro pitcher or pitching coach?
What would be unrealistic would be to be able to warm pitchers up in the first inning and keep them ready all game and never actually have them get tired. What you're advocating for would allow that to happen. That's far, far more unrealistic than pitchers getting a little tired if you warm them up for six innings straight.
We just disagree with you. For as many people as dislike the feature, there are many more that like it. We can't please everyone and we're choosing to go with what we like most, and what we think is the best, most realistic and most strategic option. I'm sorry you dislike it, but we can't please everyone here.
Anyhow, this is all totally off-topic. If you have any more points to make feel free to make them in the warmup thread. We've read the thread, but we weren't really convinced by the arguments there. If you have anything else though, please feel free to add it. We're always happy to listen and we're more than willing to change our opinions and make changes to the game if presented with convincing counter-arguments, but that hasn't happened yet here. Maybe it will in the future though.
I still do think the new feature I'm referring to will alleviate most of your concerns on the issue. It makes bullpen management much, much easier.
