Pitcher Stamina
I have seen several threads say that it is impossible to make a reliever with 25-30 stamina into a starter with moderate stamina. Many of my own trials have confirmed this, but I just saw something that blew my mind.
I began my latest sim on February 25th, 1994, as GM/Manager of the Reds. I happened to notice that Expos pitcher Pedro Martinez had a 25 stamina rating. This makes sense, as he worked almost exclusively as a reliever in 1993 for the Dodgers. Then in late May, I happened to look at the Montreal roster and Pedro now is a starter with a 55 stamina rating.
Have you ever seen anything like this, and are there rare players that can increase their stamina? Can they be identified beforehand? Of course we all know that in real life Pedro became a starter in 1994 and never looked back, but is there any rhyme or reason to this? I would have expected him to stay in the pen based on my previous experience.
