1) Be careful what you wish for. If a guy is on a PC of 100/120 and reaches his PC in the 6th inning because he has walked 7 guys, do you really want simmy to keep him in? What if he gets up to 150 pitches?
2) That's a good suggestion, though I would question why the pitcher is being pulled. Did he bat because it was a close game at the time, but his team put up a big crooked number and turned the game into a blowout, thus causing Simmy to bring in a mop-up guy?
