Again, the game is great now and this is just a suggestion ( I do understand and apologize for placing this topic in this forum instead of suggestions)
I do think you should be able to do this. Similar to how you can teach a position player new positions. I think endurance is one of those things that can be developed. I think I remember a big discussion when 06 came out about the relation of MR to SP and that a lot of relievers are just pitchers not good enough to be in the rotation. The large amount of pitchers with low endurance in this game has never been realistic, IMO.
