Stupid Question....

Hey all -

Can someone explain to me how a starter's fatigue level is 100% but his relief fatigue level is 69%? Shouldn't they both be 100%?

If your guy was at 0% after his last time pitching, the game is applying different fatigue recovery formulas from the point in time when they were at 0%. If it's been 4 days since they played and starters recover 25%+ per day, they're fully recovered. If relievers only recover about 17% per day, that would give you 69%.

So he's ok to go and throw 100 pitches in a start, but needs an extra day to throw 25 pitches?

I think it is easier to recover from 100 pitches thrown in one day than it is to recover from 25 pitches thrown 4 days in a row.

But I can see their thinking - if you take a guy who is normally a reliever and let him throw 120 pitches, he's not going to recover very well from that. When I put a guy with a low stamina rating in my rotation, I normally limit him to about 15 pitches more than his stamina.
