This ISN'T baseball!

First off, I realize this is a video game. But come on people. What's with the 'win at all costs' attitude?
My last opponent started a Ranked Seasons game off with Kluber pitching.
We get to the top of the 5th tied 0-0 when he gets two runs off a busted play due to ANOTHER fielding error.
Bottom of the 5th and he proceeds to bring in Sig Newhouser. (Even though he had MULTIPLE Diamond RPs with FULL energy).
Then the bottom of the 8th; he brings in Kyle Wright.
Are you kidding me!
SDS needs to do something about Starters coming in to relief spots.
I 'almost' feel bad that the servers dropped the game and it didn't register.

You are surprised people would have a win at all costs attitude? Welcome to online gaming.

This is what happens when user input has barely any influence on the outcome of most games

Ya that makes a ton of sense!

The problem is all the relievers are garbage or wildly overpriced. I’m all for playing the game the right way and I’m also a bit of a traditionalist, but in a close game, facing 99 Mantle, with a straight choice between Hal Newhouser or Amir Garrett to take the mound, I’m struggling to throw common sense out of the window and send Garrett out there on principle. You can’t blame toxic players, although there are many, when the game forces your hand in such a manner.

I just want to say I do like we can bring in starters, although I feel the stamina should be much lower for the next game(s) since they are coming out the pen and not starting the game.
