Right now you hire a manager and ask him to set your ingame strategies. He believes in stealing bases so his strategies for the game is to steal like a mad crazy person... all the time. Doesn't matter if it's the 9th inning down by 1 run or if it's the first inning up by 50... he just has runners going like there's no tomorrow. In other words every slider is set the same for every situation. This results in stupidity. If the manager believes in letting his pitcher work out of trouble he sets the slider as such, it'll be the same if he's up by 10 in the 5th or if he's up by 1 in the bottom of the 9th.... that doesn't work.
I don't expect that it would be in depth and exactly what I expect (or what I would do)... but seeing that he does acknowledge that there's a difference between the two situations is important.

Then only problem with this is that the slider settings are already relative. So if a slider is maxed to steal in the first three innings in a tie game if the base "steal chance" is 30%, it may go up to 40%. But in the 9th and a tie game, if the base "steal chance" is 60%, it may go up to 70%.
For this to be implemented, the slider settings would have to be made so they are no longer relative to the average value for that situation. I'd be in favor of this then.
