I really have no idea concerning the situation you mentioned but I just took a quick look at the ratings of 30-something team solo league that I play. I looked specfically at the "era" numerical rating for the pitchers at each level for each team and the highest number era rating for a pitcher in the minors was "6"(I found one). Every team had mostly 0-2's for ratings in that area for their minor league pitchers. In every case the teams had their best or most highly rated pitchers at the major league level. Mind you I only checked the computer teams but everyone was like that.

I don't recall seeing anything in any of the leagues that I have played that would "throw up a red flag" as far as how teams handle their pitchers. Sounds like a small incident and their is probably more to it that we can see here.
