Thanks, guys. I appreciate the replies.
Is the AI doing something funky like playing a player at an unrated position? That's one of its favorite tricks, and it doesn't help pitching stats much. I remember having a very hard time convincing the AI that Larry Lajoie should be playing 2B instead of SS the last time I replayed 1901.
