What are your thoughts on your settings?  Do you give up the out and set aggressive on sacrifice bunts?  Is it worth it to go very aggressive on stolen base attempts and base running?  In real baseball a team that runs and steals at every opportunity and even when there doesn't appear to be an opportunity puts tons of pressure on the other team, gets in the pitchers head, etc., but in a sim game does it do anything other than maybe garnering you an extra base but otherwise create a CS out half of the time or more?

Is it worth it to be more aggressive on hit and run?

What the hell good does arguing more do?

It's all team-based.   Different types of teams, different strategies.

For most of those settings, it's really based on the makeup of your team.  Examine the play by play, observe what's happening, and tweak the management console settings according to your observations to try to maximize the good results and minimize the bad ones.

As far as arguing goes: supposedly, your team gets a half-inning "boost" when the manager gets tossed.  But then the bench coach runs the team for the rest of the game, and his strategy rating comes into play.
