I'm carrying four SP* rotation (for the first time) and even though I occasionally insert another SP in my rotation, some of my pitchers are on pace to pitch close to 300 inings. My concern is that they may get burned out. Would they? I'm currently in first place with 42 games to go but in a very tight race and I'm worried my SP will fall apart. Any comments? Thanks! :D

I'm almost positive you're OK. So long as your pitchers get their required days of rest between starts, fatigue is not a factor. I don't think there's any cumulative innings pitched fatigue effect in SOM Online.

I thought I read something about SP getting tired late in the season but I'm not sure.

I'm pretty sure there is NOT...although I'm pretty sure a lot of people playing think there should be for added realism. All these 300 IP 400 K pitchers are making me dizzy.
(Yes that was the literary device of exaggeration, hehe)

No fatigue crossover. Confirmed by TSN a while ago.

Crossover fatigue isn't in there...but it should be. But then again, there are worse things in the world that should be solved before a virtual John Smoltz piching 355 innings in a fake season, I guess.
