Yeah I agree with this. I have a fictional league and it's always really frustrating because, as a computer code, it obviously can't understand all the nuance that would go into a real team.
For instance, a pitcher that plays for a team for 12 years (his whole career) but has lapsed into a mediocre pitcher, they put him in the bullpen for a guy who is like 1 point better than him on a 20/80 scale but only has 2 years in the league.

In real life, the team would never do that out of respect, so I like to kind of try to override it, but there's no real way to do it.


Another scenario could be a guy who is like 4 HRs away from 500 HRs or something and the team benches him for a guy who is marginally better than him.
