We all Know about pitchers fatigue and rating and how it effects the game, but is there a such thing as batting fatigue in the game? Example if a batters card says they played in a 145 games or batted 500 times in a season what happens if anything after those levels are reached? In game 150 or AB 525 do HR suddenly turn in to long fly balls? And singles turn into weak grounders? Do players need to be sat during the season to rest so these limits are not reached? Is there hidden "magic" buried deep inside HAL's game play that can effect the hitter late in the season? Thoughts?

There is no such thing as batter's fatigue. Hal might rest a guy if you are using the usage control rules with the CD-ROM but here at TSN there are no usage limits.

Nothing more annoying that a guy with a "0-day" injury in the CD-Rom, like a day-to-day injury, forcing you to rest a guy for the game . . . no there's nothing like it online, the pricing on batters reflects their value for a full season.

Indeed! ......And you are right, we do not have to worry about that here.
