What I'm wondering is if it's possible for the summaries to include reasons why a player was swapped out? Some of them are obvious--like for instance if you're up by 6 and your starter leaves in the 7th he's probably reached his pitch count. Others are not so obvious--like if your 3b has gone 3/4 in the game, why is the engine pinch-hitting for him? If I can track the patterns in how/why things like that happen, then I'll have an idea what I should look towards changing. Is this at all a possibility?
