Working with Stamina

breathless Bucco · 07-09-2014, 01:11 PM

So I'm looking at my pitchers to figure out who can be starters, long or middle relievers and closers. I'm using the stamina rating to help me with that. I figure a 3 or 4 stamina is a closer, where a 10 or higher would be a starter. (this is A ball with a 20 point scale).

But what I see is a guy with a stamina of 10 or 12 getting tired at 3 innings (50 pitches). So what is the relationship of stamina to the pitchers pitch count / innings?

Stamina works differently by role. If you have a SP set as a MR he will get tired after 50-60 pitches but recover faster. An SP set as SP should get 90-110 pitches before tiring, but he must be fully rested ie 4 days or 3 days in a pinch.

Check roles and rest to confirm they are being used correctly.
