there should be something with pitch counts and a starter reliever stamina that carries forward today schemes If you use a reliever in consecutive days or two days in four games the stamina should be depleted or very low also starters who are on in games like in real life that are just dealing should have an attribute that lets them stay in the groove where they are just very hard to hit for one game or two games even three. They should have like a progressive pitching fatigue factor so if you use your starters in the early start of the season throwing 89 innings a game then come the summer months they'll have a lesser fatigue threshold because they've thrown so many innings The franchise is broken because you can throw a starter 9 innings and next game he's automatically rested up

Amir Garrett’s stamina was down for me after 2 batters, maybe 9 pitches total? The OP used him and used him for 1 2/3 inning before he was in the yellow. Then my Kerry Wood imploded. Dude couldn’t catch up to a Kluber FB, but Wood came in and he hit 2 off of him. Quite odd.

Did he hit two homers off fastballs? It does seem that woods pitches seem to gravitate toward the middle of the plate. Usually, however, when my relievers [censored] the bed is when I throw their off speed stuff. I think I’m going to try sticking with hard stuff with relievers. Maybe alternate between sinkers or fastballs or something.

Yes, one up and away and one low. But he couldn’t catch up to anything prior.
