Not to split hairs, but in unlimited cap leagues like this, it's not how much money you're paying any particular player, but is the best player at the position being used optimally? If Kuo is far & away Chuck's best RP, then he should get the most usage, but in this environment TSN salary is not the best indicator of card worth.
Remember his salary is based on 80M league assumption, which heavily factors the R3 into his price. Card-wise, as a LH, I put him on par with a RH R1 making around $3.5-4M. So if Chuck's lesser-priced RH RPs are getting same usage as Kuo, no issue as long as they are getting used mostly in situations where they should be effective.
Also, while a 6-15 record in one-run games may have something to do with the bullpen, most saberhead studies seem to show 1-run game record is not statistically correlatable to any factor. In other words, there is no predictability to 1-run records and in SOM we chalk that up to bad dice more than anything else.
