Bullpen/Pitcher Settings

So the view of the team shows the rolls aren't effected to create more hitting on the hitters. IF the @'s are changed to hits, Singles Doubles Triples and Home Runs, lets assume on average at FO the pitcher has converted the 200/2160 chances of an @ symbol to a double. This changes Greg Maddox's OPS to .440 from .160 at that point in a 10-10-10-10 park. Which still makes him as valuable as a 2.25 million dollar reliever. Since that 1.75 million is used on hitting, the value of keeping Greg Maddux at F0 is a positive 1.75 million over any other team with a reliever at 2.25 million. This means the stud strategy for 4 relievers has 5.5 million more dollars than a team with a traditional bullpen and 4 studs at no degradation in performance. This is the difference between having JOhnny Bench or Josh Gibson as your catcher. For your team about 38 more offensive runs for the season with no loss of defensive runs. That is if your pitching is in F4 or lower for the same number of innings that a full relief staff would pitch, which is unlikely. If a 4 stud team had 150 innings of F4 or lower that would be quite a bit and the average team probably has 200-250 innings of bullpen work, coached very poorly. So you are also picking up another 3.5 million in pitching advantage, as you get the great stud pitcher for an additional 100 innings over a 2.25 million dollar reliever. Now you know why so many of the top % managers play that strategy, it is just mathematically in their interest.

Ssshhh. Let them keep spending money on bullpens.

No . . . you're really delusional, and your figures are way out of whack.
