For what it's worth, an average season produces a bit over total 6200 dice rolls. 186 negative dice rolls might sound like a lot, and it's more than what one usually sees in a season, but for an entire season, 186 negative rolls amounts to 3% of total rolls.
This suggests the validity of Hack's point. If someone's rolls happen to land, more often than not, the juicy parts of the hitters' or pitchers' cards, this might matter as much or more than which card the rolls land on.
I would speculate that in a 200M league +/- dice rolls might matter more than in an 80M league, since at 200M rolls on the pitchers' cards will mostly be outs, while rolls on the hitters cards will most often be hits.
