Little draft trouble here

ForeverRoyalKC · 01-21-2017, 11:24 PM

As some of you know, I am picking all 297 rounds of a fantasy draft. The problem I am having is I am at the later rounds (170's) and I have been picking starting pitchers, with the SP by their names, but with reliever stats. I pick them FOR starting pitching, but bunches of them seem to be showing up as RP in my number of players in the organization. As of now I have 34 SP and 57 RP. I am afraid I am going to overflow on relievers. Every so often, I have the AI set up the organization and distribute the players the way it sees fit. Am I doing something wrong? Will the AI set things right even if I over pick? Kinda stuck here drafting more pitchers.

I guess I don't quite see the problem. Do you think a lot (any) of real MLB or any ai teams have more than 34 genuine SP prospects, with future starter stats?

Even with 7 levels of minors you're pretty well perfectly good on pure starters for each level.

Every team faces the question of any reasonably talented pitcher being a SP vs. RP as one of their biggest issues at the lower levels.

You're facing the same challenge everyone else playing the game and in the same circumstances deals with here. How can you deal with it?
