I think this thread is suffering to certain extent from "multiple topic syndrome." I know that Markus indicated above that he is looking into at least some components of what is mentioned in this thread. It's possible that this issue will be wholly resolved by however Markus addresses this issue.
On the other hand, it is a big challenge to implement a new system like this. Everyone has different ideas about different aspects of the system, and different ways of playing the game, and unfortunately, it's just not mathematically possible to make every player work exactly as they did in OOTP 9. But, that doesn't mean we're not willing to keep looking at things to try to make them better. I'm sorry that it has negatively impacted your converted league, and we'll do our best to make adjustments.

Thanks for your quick reply. I always appreciate that OOTP takes comments seriously. The reason the thread has 'multiple topic syndrome' is Markus's answer boils down to 'its presently working as it was intended to' without stating whether changes were being actively considered. Looking into the 'Millwood' issue is looking into the least important aspect of the problem being described.
You are certainly right that Markus's work may wholly resolve the problem, but there is nothing in his answer that suggests a complete fix is even under active consideration. Bottom line--pitchers that tire at 90 pitches even in the modern era are seldom in the starting rotation, but after conversion guys that tire at about 90 pitches constitute 40% of starting rotations (per the comment above)--that is a glitch that needs a fix to make any conversions other than online leagues work properly. I think we are looking for an acknowledgment of the problem, which has very little to do with the Millwood issue.
