exceptional stamina?

WSoxfan86 · 12-20-2011, 11:21 PM

i started a game recently as the 2011 White Sox. After suffering some injuries to my starting rotation, I was forced to put in a relief player(Lucas Harell I believe). First game he startes in, he gets a shutout. I was pleasently surprised, but thought that it was just luck. He gets the ball six days later... and throws another shutout

. Is this normal? Not that I'm complaining or anything.

I've used delivers as starters many times. It seems like the game gives them too much stamina. If they have a decent pitch selection, then you can easily make them into a starter.

I ran into this with one of my minor leaguers. He was listed as a closer with great stuff but had only 2 pitches. His team had him start 28 games and he had about 250 K's in 200 IP (despite being listed as a CL). The moment I changed his position to SP, his stats went into the tank. I changed him back to CL and he reverted back his dominating self the next year. Serious head-scratcher.
