Drives me nuts when HAL brings in the lefty or righty specialist, then the other HAL pinch hits a guy like Jay Alou, and HAL leaves the specialist in to get clobbered. Happens all the time for me now, especially with Dave Roberts.
The other development that has me smashing my keyboard and spilling my coffee in the morning these days is when HAL pinch hits for Dale Murray after one or two innings. I must be a moron to try using a super reliever in a non DH league. He's certainly helping my team win games, but is having Tom McBride hit with a man on and two outs really better than letting Murray pitch three or more innings the rest of the way? This has happened a few times early in the season and it's killing me.
