It's not about programming the feature, It's about how easy it is to program the AI to be prepared for all the options I need.
Lets say you're in a tied game bottom 7 and your starter is finally wavering, back to back walks. You're deciding to warm up your lefty setupmen, not your stopper, cause by the time he's ready, you'll probably be in a lefty part of the lineup.
You're also decided to warm up a long reliever, cause if someone clears the bases you want a scrub to eat innings.
But the AI sees "tied game, 7th inning, warm up the setupman" and "possible high leverage situation, warm up the stopper" - reasonable, but can the AI know like a human does that both of those are pretty interchangeable to your team? I doubt it does.
And now the next batter gets on and the 2nd hits a bases clearing double and now the AI enters the setupmen down by 3 and you're wondering WTF it is doing.
