HAL problems

I have difficulty with this.

Texiria is my #4 hitter, and HAL keeps taking him out and putting Juan Pierre to PR for him, and then play 1st base. How can I stop that?

(I have only 1 firstbaseman, since Texeria can not get injured).

I hate this AI.

Is he checked off for "Don't pinch hit for vs. R/L's"?

No, he is not checked ... but Juan Pierre keeps coming in as a Pinch RUNNER, not a PH.

And I thought that you shouldn't click both L/R for pinch hitting, because it would just confuse HAL and make him worse. Read that somehwere.

I remember in the 1969 game, I had Rico Petrocelli as my SS, a 10 million dollar player who was a 1-12 runner. Hal kept pinch running Felipe Alou for him late in games. Alou was a 1-15 runner and not much of a base stealer. It was insane and the only recourse I had was to drop Alou. I couldn't have anybody on my bench that ran faster than 1-12 or Rico was hitting the pines for a miniscule base-running advantage.

Remember this: Hal makes those bizarre decisions for your opponents too!
