There is no issue with pitcher stamina. The file has the actual IPouts per GS for every year. The modifier adjusts to your league setting for pitcher stamina. If you look at your starting pitching IPouts let gas and compare it to the real value it will be accurate.

As for balks it also targets the correct amount of balks per IPout for the season. When the modifier increases it does not mean you are getting more balks or more of anything, it is just finding a calibration value do that you get the correct ratios of everything.

There can possibly be an issue of individual pitchers getting more balls than expected though. This is because many pitchers will load with 0 balks in the editor because the editor sample size will round it down to 0, whole you have other pitchers who end up with 1 in the editor. Those pitchers with 1 may end up getting more than their share if balks.

I can ask if they l can update this so that any pitcher who actually did have at least 1 balk in a season historically ends up with 1 in the edition rather than getting rounded down to 0 which can cause some issues with balancing. The overall balks for the league though should still be correct.
