Most recent example: Rich and I are going into the playoffs against each other tonight. We both have staffs with 4 stud aces. Rich leads the league in ERA, and I'm in second. Rich's bullpen pitched a total of 42 innings, mine 25.
I'm not saying Nomad is wrong, but if he's right, it apparently hasn't made a difference in terms of its effect.
If you are playing $80 million leagues you can get away with F4 for TOP flight SPs in a Petco....but don't try that strategy in $110 to $160 leagues or you'll be fed to the sharks.
