it's like the 2-pt conversion arguement in football. statistically, it should be better to go for 2 each time, but no coach will do it.

in baseball, you might not be able to statistically correlate the effect of arguing with bad calls to wins, but it DOES make a difference for some players. Like i said previously, it would be incredibly difficult to code for this i think, but you can't just say that a manager getting booted has no effect on the play of his team. It does.
