I am playing in a theme league where you can only have 2 *SP.

If I am starting Joss & vance in the 1-2 slot. Is there any way I can set the rotation in the auto settings so Joss and Vance always pitch every 4 days?

Or can it only be done manually by setting every individual game?

If you place them in the 1 and 2 slots they will automatically pitch on 3 days rest. If a guy is a *sp the only way to make them pitch on 4 days rest is to put them in a slot behind a non* sp. Hope this makes sense.

Okay, more advanced question.
Rotation of
Pedro (non-*)
Chance*
Santana*
Studivant (non-*)
Mossi (no-*)

If I list them just like that in the rotation, will it have Pedro start 33 games, Chance start 41, Santana 40, Sturdy and Mossi 20?

Nope, it will pitch them like a traight 5 man rotation. Pretty sure you would have to use the per game starters to accomplish that.

You can always trade Pedro to me, so you wouldn't have to worry about your rotation.


:lol:

if you go with the following supposition:

>HAL will always find a way to NOT do what I want to actually do>

You'll be fine. :D

I have a relevant question and I don't want to start a new thread.

I have 3 * pitchers that I want going 1,2,3 in the rotation every 4 days.

For the last spot I have 3 non* pitchers who I will spot start depending on the opponent. Two of those spot starters also have an R3.

How do I set up my rotation and bullpen so that the S*/R3 starters don't get seen in relief?

Motherscratcher... unclear on which guys you don't want to be used in relief... the top three guys, or the spot guys.

If the top three, set them in the rotation in slots 1-3. They won't be used unless it's an emergency, and should avoid being used at all, except the day after they start.

If the bottom three, Set your game by game starters, which should keep them out of BP action that will affect a subsequent start.

I thought that it would always start the first available to pitch on your list so that Pedro would go first if that was where he was listed and would then get 33 starts.
