For Hitters only. How does Fatigue work? Does it really matter with the online game? Take a few examples. Wes Helmes 140 Games, only 240 AB's. 9.7 mil. Can he hold up for 500+ AB's? Scott Luke 65 Games, 214 AB's 9.1 Mil. Can he hold up for 150 Games 600 AB's. Both have and Inj of a 1. If they can hold up then Fatigue cannot be a factor, if no, why would they be priced at 9+ Mil? So is fatigue somehow factored in over the course of a season? Will they hit worse over the course of a season? Or stay the same. Take Pablo Ozuna 79 Games 189 AB's only 1.7 Mil 328 Avg, 365 obp. Helmes 329 BA 365 obp, 9 Mil more. Why? Anyone who knows how the online games factors in fatigue if at all let us know, Does it look at games played, AB's or nothing? Thanks

Nope, at-bats/innings pitched don't matter.
