How to Maximize One Reliever?

How to Maximize One Reliever?

Postby LeftyODoul » Wed May 18, 2011 11:30 am

I have had good success setting up bullpens, but in an ATG league with limited salary, I'd like to use Barney Schultz for as many innings as possible and save money on my other relievers.
Is there a consensus on what settings to use if I'd like to have Schultz soak up the vast majority of the relief innings?

I would set him up with the all of the bullpen roles other than L or R specialists roles. I would even use his Fatigue and set it to F6 or F7 so he will stay in once he is in. This is just my opinion on how I would do it if I only want him to relieve.

Thanks for some feedback. I realized after the fact that I should have posted on the Strategy board - so I appreciate the response.

Actually I would post this in the ATG board. You are more likely to get an ATG response there.

It shouldn't be any different in ATG or 2009 (assuming it uses bullpen 2.0). List him as Middle Man, Set Up and Closer (if he has a C rating). Set to do not relieve before F0 (or whatever F level you are comfortable with - I have used F0 with several shut down relievers with good success). You will get a ton of innings. I recently got 226 out of Eckersley in the BTT 90's game.
