Add INNINGS along Side of Pitch Counts as a choice

There are times that I would rather see a SP go 7 innings and complete the inning rather then go strictly by pitch counts.

Looking at the Yankees this year, who have a superior bullpen, they "only" need their SP to go 6 IP and then turn it over to that BP for the 7th, 8th and 9th Inning.

Further, if I have a SP that runs into trouble in the 6th where I'm winning, I might want to avoid the underbelly of my BP and have my setup guy go 6th and 7th, and closer 8th and 9th.

Granted, I have the ability to setup a 6, 7 and 8th inning setup as well as a 8th or 9th inning Closer, I could specify a different setup scenario, like totally bypassing the 6th inning setup, (based off avoid leverage).
