I have to agree with the OP. It is not realistic to have the pitcher get tired in the bullpen. Often pitchers will just stand around in the Bullpen once they are warm rather than warm up until tired.

You often see the manager have to wait for the Bullpen pitcher to get warm before bringing them in. That is realistic, but I have seen thousands of baseball games and don't ever remember them saying, after a pitcher came in and got lid up, that he must have gotten tired while in warming in the pen.

I agree with the OP, you should be able to turn that off without having to turn off the warm-up option off, or at least tie it to the intelligence rating, so only dumb pitchers keep warming and get tired.
