My manager likes to use Kincaid http://brokenbat.org/player/149806 on outfield after being a pinch hitter. What to do. After he is on outfield the opponent starts to spray that area of the field and score crazy amount of runs… His true range is 0-1. He has no arm so he rather kicks the ball back to other players.

There are options.

- don't pinch hit for Snow
- don't pinch for Snow until the 9th (and at home)
- send Kincaid to the minors when facing a LH starting pitcher
- sign a LHB with comparable offence to Kincaid, but can play OF

The best option tho is to "bait" your manager into using Kincaid at another spot in the lineup.

On my team, I really want to pinch hit for Daniels. In some circumstances my manager will use Stroud. Stroud is a millstone in OF. I want my manager to use Schuler. So I set my DH to be pinch hit for a little bit earlier than my LF. My manager uses Stroud in the DH spot, so he's forced to use Schuler for Daniels.

Not 100%, but surprisingly close. :) Might sound a little clunky, but tinkering with the settings to get your flow chart to function the way you want is (imo) a skill, and can win you a game or two over the course of the season.
