RTTS - Can we ease up on the IBBs?

[dap1234567890_PSN]

3rd inning, 0 outs, 0-0 game, 1/4 into first AA season, runners on 2B and 3B and I get IBB'd??? Seriously!!! They didn't even do this to Barry Bonds!

Doesn't sound unreasonable to me. You are most likely the best hitter on the team.

Walking you sets up

1. A force out at home plate on an infield grounder
2. The chance for a double play

I understand what you are saying, but NOT in the 3rd Inning of a 0-0 game early in an AA season! As I am going through these Ballplayer programs, I am getting beaned or IBB'd in almost a quarter of my PAs. The stat grind is long enough (especially in the gold and diamond programs which is all I have left) for the grind to be extended through so many noncompetitive PAs.
