Pinch running
Posted: Fri Jan 29, 2021 2:51 pmI got a team with Brock set as pinch runner. I have Pennington as bench/utility player. Was hoping Brock would be used a lot as pinch runner with Pennington playing the role of taking the place of the replaced batter at the fielding position.
But it has taken 67 games for Brock to finally be used as a pinch runner. He stole third. This is a 200 mil league but still if HAL is never going to actually employ my pinch runner that is a wasted 1.75 mil. And Pennington's 6.22 mil may also be a wasted expense. Combined that is 7.97 mil that might have been used elsewhere.
Though part of having Brock on team is I was always a huge Lou Brock fan and there is satisfaction from just having him on my roster. But would like to get HAL to use this weapon.
