Wilcy Moore

Not wanting to take away needed Reliever only guys from the pre-war set, but really, shouldn't Wilcy Moore's 1927 card be S/R given that he started 12 of the 50 games he appeared in, pitching 6 complete games (meaning that at least 50 of his 213 innings are from his complete games alone -- 93 of his innings come from starts, some 44%)?

shhhhhhhh!

The original Wilcy did have a starting rating in ATG....then...one ver. (not sure which) he the starting rating vanished

years ago the 1927 Yanks were one of the first oldtimer teams introduced in the board game. Wilcy was the best sp card n the team

It seems like you have found a mistake that needs correcting.

When Strat added the rule requiring 3 RP-only pitchers to "prevent" super-relievers, they dropped the "S" rating on a number of old-timer cards to increase the pool of R-only cards in the set.

That wasn't to prevent super-relievers, it was to prevent the "no-relief, every SP goes 9+ inning" method.

And a good thing, too...that way I don't have to remember what the second thing to go is...
