Lets say you're short on ABs. In live, I can pull the DH and let the pitcher bat. Is there a way or setting I can get sparky to do that?

It's tough to do. Every other available bench bat has to be below their auto-rest fatigue setting before Sparky will insert a pitcher into the DH spot. There may be even more involved than just that, but I don't remember all the criteria exactly.

I don't know how to pull the DH, but if you are willing to save PA by foregoing the DH for a few games until your team gets caught up, you can set your lineup with position players 2-9 so the pitcher will automatically bat first. That saves some PA for the rest of the team.

If it's a DH league then you have to fill all 9 batting lineup spots. You can't leave one empty for the pitcher. So no, it's not really that simple.
