Is there some way other than salary if a SP pitcher is a #1 starter versus a #4 starter?

Is there also a way to tell if a RP is a closer (or could be a closer) other than the number of saves he has?

Seems from what I have read there is a way?

There is no closer rule in ATG II. As for what # starter a pitcher is, it just plain doesn't matter. You can line them up any which way. Let's say your opponent is using a rotation of Alexander, Koufax, Drysdale and Harris.You have Gibson, Carlton, Buhl and McNally. You might want to match uo McNally and Buhl with Pete and Sandy and Gibson and Carlton against Drysdale and Harris.

But if you click on the team name some of them give the order of the starters.
