Reply #29: Much more complex then that

You have to decide what batting order will effect the outcome, you like to open up the game with your power hitters, you also have to evaluate the each pitcher and decide what rotation the starters go into and which are your relievers and closers. You also have to decide when to bunt, when to pull out a pitcher, when to pinch run, and when to pinch hit. Not everygame is 10-1, alot of games are decided in the 9th or extra innings.
