Well, I never got good results out of this sort of pitcher as a starter. Serviceable 4, 5 SPs, like I said before (meaning a .500 pitcher w/an ERA of around 4.50-5.00) yes, but never dominant.

Also, I was never able to increase the stamina of a reliever with a great repertoire, the way it's happened IRL with some guys like the Rangers' C.J. Wilson or Alexi Ogando. If I didn't increase their stamina manually, the game would never do it, regardless on how many starts I gave them.
