Robo bullpen coach

Posted By Garth

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.
