Robo bullpen coach
Kurt,I have a team very comparable in LL1 - even had Sosa and Nixon plus Bernie and Klesko.  Same bad luck with the hitting, and I failed to make th playoffs.  I have weak SP and a terrific bullpen (I was playing with a drafting formula based on PV value.  The formula loved RH relief pitchers.)  A problem is that the robo is formulaic, not smart, with RPs.  I just could not get it to use the pen like I wanted, despite having set on the most agressive setting.  I read someplace, from Mike I suppose, that part of the formula is the depth of the bullpen but its not enough.  You really can't get the robo to use RPs differently than the standard; ie, long guy when your either ahead or behind by three runs ... . 
It would be great to be able to set a use profile for each pitcher.
