Two Problems

1) There are tons of 5-star relief pitchers available when you do the inaugural draft, I remember this problem last year does anyone know a work around?

2) How does the depth chart work? During spring training I selected my starting catcher then two backups to play every 2nd and 3rd game so the starter only plays every three days. I have simmed 5 games and my starter has all the at bats, while the two backups haven't even entered a game yet??

Don't know regarding 1, but in my experience in 11 (don't have 12 yet

), the depth chart settings don't seem to work properly in spring training. My guess is that the depth chart settings are coded to only affect regular season and playoff games. I don't know how hard it would be to change, but it would be nice for the depth charts to count in spring training. It would help with spreading playing time around.
