I guess the AI will have to look at who's potentially available as a follower, rather than just assume it will be an opposite hander.

Shapes up for some interesting strategy IRL. Especially when it comes to playoffs when a number of potential followers will be available.
The point was that if someone can figure out how to abuse the computer AI, they'll do it. I'm not sure exactly how it could work, but I just hope that it's not really annoying so that you always have your weakest hitters in the game by the end with no one on the bench. Also, it would suck to always have the wrong lineup getting the majority of at bats.
