But the main reason i use as played schedules is that when used with the correct transactions it seems to help eliminate the dreaded not enough players on active roster message.
But he just can't do it. Even the highest stamina rating (and all of my 1871 pitchers get the highest stamina rating) can't handle that third game in a row. 30 pitches is it. After that he starts tiring, and after 50 he's exhausted with no bullpen available. Three in a row or the fourth in five days just doesn't work. At some point, I'm going to go in and edit the schedules to eliminate that. Until then, I'll just give Bill Stearns and Denny Mack the occasional extra start.
