I know this has been addressed on the forums before, but I am not sure how it is handled. If a pitcher is designated as a starting pitcher but placed in a reliever position, does he pitch like a starter or reliever?
Scenario 1:
Player X is a SP with 3 pitches and 70 stamina (20-80 scale). He is placed in a middle relief role and comes in to start the 6th inning. Will he be able to finish the game if he does not have trouble (15-20 pitches per inning)? This could put him around 80 pitches, a reasonable expectation if he starts the game.
Scenario 2:
Player Y is a RP with three pitches and 70 stamina (20-80 scale). As a reliever, he gets gassed after 40 pitches. If he starts the game, can he be expected to give 80-100 pitches if he is still labeled a reliever?
