Question Additional data on PbP problem

I wanted to add my two cents on this issue. I have also seen these mistakes in the PbP cropping up recently. I don't have any in particular to share but they are along the same lines - illogical or impossible calls, sometimes the play is called one way and then called again a different way.

I have been running a fictional league through about fifteen seasons and they are just showing up. Normally, I let the computer sim the regular season but then step in and manage if my team makes it to the playoffs. So all in all, I haven't managed a large number of games - probably no more than 75 or so. I don't know if that is relevant, but I thought I'd add it.

Also, I don't know if this is the same problem or another one, but I have also just noticed twice in the same playoff series instances where my runner is picked off first base despite me choosing the swing away button. Is that normal? I figured there would only be risk if you actually were stealing or hit and running.
