Non Usage of Relief Pitchers

There is a team in one of my leagues that has almost zero innings by the relief staff. I asked the owner how he did it but he hasn't answered. I have tried all the settings I know. All 9 innings pitchers, conservative usage of relief pitchers, all SP with slow hook.

yes you need 9 inning starters plus set them at f7 or lower

What is f7? or f1?

Fatigue ratings pitchers become less effective as there number drops. F1 is totally ineffective like a .50 pitcher. At f7 a great pitcher is still pretty good and hal can't remove him until he drops below that Except for a ph in non dh league.

I set them all to F1 here, figuring that I didn't want any of these relievers in the game if I could help it

Sorry for my ignorance but how do u set F1 and F7?

Steve F, I see the results but not how you set up the parameters to accomplish the results?

Pull up 'Pitcher Preferences' from the drop down menu under 'Your Team'. Next to your starters will be a box for 'Don't Rel. B4'. Set those to F1 or F7 or whatever you want. In Steve's case with his pen you can see why he went F1 next to each of his SPs.

Effective since the team had 99 wins but, curiously, it didn’t save much salary cap $. About 35 mm in pitching cap space which is a bit higher than the typical.

Ok I now know which parameters but don;t know what f0 through f9 mean, what impact they will have on the game and use of relief pitchers?

I set them all to F1 here, figuring that I didn't want any of these relievers in the game if I could help it

How did you get such lofty batting averages in a park like Petco?
