I stand corrected, at least in terms of stamina. You are right; TBH I hadn't noticed. The logic escapes me, though. If a revised stamina stat is being used, then why not adjust the on-screen value accordingly? Why on earth would starters become more tired than relievers when pitching from the pen? It makes no sense. The reason I liked the previous system is because it did, kind of, with starters exerting more effort over a short period (represented by a stuff bonus), but consequently tiring as quickly as relievers. The men themselves aren't that different physically, but what they train to do is.
