Here it is:
<a href="http://www.informatech.de/files/ootp/ootp40a.zip" target="_blank">http://www.informatech.de/files/ootp/ootp40a.zip</a>
<a href="http://www.ootpbb.com/files/ootp40a.zip" target="_blank">http://www.ootpbb.com/files/ootp40a.zip</a>

Here are the fixes:
- Fixed ERA calculation bug
- Fixed pinch hitting AI
- Fixed bug that caused injured minor league pitchers to pitch anyway at times
- Fixed "autodraft until human" crash bug. The game crashed when there was no human team
- Tweaked trading AI, blockbuster trades are now less common.
- The available money displayed in the free agent screen is now calculated correctly immediately after you make an offer.
- Fixed a bug that made players demand contract extensions even when the financials were disabled.
- Tweaked pitcher development, there were a little too few high K's pitchers.
- Tweaked pitchers sorting in league leaders screen
- Fixed players improving on DL bug
- Fine tuned top 100 prospects list
- Fixed bug that caused players to ask for contract extensions even if they have already announced their retirement
- Reduced ratings set now displays the right talent levels in player lists
- AI Teams now take the salary cap into calculation when trading during the free agent bidding
- If you now import an OOTP 3 league, the game will ask if it should set the attendance to average
- Improved generated minor league stats

Enjoy! :-)
