I don't normally like to bitch about this stuff . . . but after losing two games in the bottom half of the last inning (three if you include out softball league playoff, grrrr) I have to vent. In one of the games, HAL brought in my closer . . . at F0. Four singles later (surprise!) he realizes there's another arm in the bullpen and brings him in. This pitcher gave up the last hit of the game . . . but if you're like me, I'll take my chances with a worse pitcher who isn't so tired his arm is about to fall off. I really didn't need to have both teams go 1-2 tonight, that move did not help one bit.

A little advice, don't let HAL manage you softball team!

I had the opposite happen last night. I have my closer set to Max. HAL had two last-inning save situations and didn't bring in the closer either time (won 1, lost 1). In the one I lost, the starter, who was set to Quick Hook and had already given up 6 runs, was still in the game in the 10th inning while my rested closer was sitting in the bullpen! I'm chalking it up to just some kind of random thing as I have been pretty happy with my pitching usage up until then.
