Pitcher endurance "Normal": at most 2 starters and 2 relievers tired (i.e. 7+ not tired P's available). During the mid-season I sim innings 1-6 inclusive then play out the rest of the game.
This has happened twice in a single week for my team, and countless times for the sims: The starting pitcher will get roughed up for at least 4 runs in the first 2 innings and get pulled for an MR. From the time the reliever is put in until the end of the 5th inning, no matter how many runs they give up, they will never get replaced until the 6th inning!!!  I've seen 16 ERs in 4 inning once and 12 at least 6 times. This is an obvious bug on using multiple relievers before the 6th inning.
This league has had no other bug probs and is running on a 3.2 GHz P4 w/2 gigs, etc ... I have everything on: all logos, historical stadiums, all player photos, sim minors, game logs, keep all box scores. Well, ok, no sound, as usual though I wish I could without risking crashing my league... |
As a workaround, check in Team Strategies and set the "pull starters" all the way to the quickest setting (all the way to the left on the slider) and set "pull relievers" to the less or slowest setting (all the way to the right).
In addition, go to League Setup and find your Era settings...there are settings there where you set the use of starters and relievers...sorry, I can't get into the game setup and give you more specifics...my game is down and I have spent about 18 hours trying to get it relicensed. Nothing with computers is simple for computer-simpletons like me.
You can also set pinchhitters settings in Era settings and in Team Strategies. This will cut down on pinchhitting and pitching changes, too...or in your case, increase it so a pitcher is removed quicker.
Hope this help some. It helped me stop starters from giving up 10-12 runs before the AI would pull them...but it still pulls relievers too much and too soon.
