The problem is this closer struggles when he pitches more than 1 inning. How can I set it up that he pitches in most games (i.e. 2021 80 games) but not pitch more than one inning?
Not sure if this would exactly solve your issue, but in the past, when I sim a season with a struggling setup-man, I set his pitch limit to 20-25. Generally gives him 0.2 - 1.1 IP. Also hook him quickly.
