Six man rotation

[COMMISSIONERHBK9]

Hey guys does anyone use a six man rotation in their franchise. I know technically u don't have six slots but does anyone on their six day use their sixth sp or does most people just do the 5 man rotation

[HypoLuxa13]

I have done that in September once rosters expand and I have plenty of bullpen arms. But never in a regular rotation setting.

As a Mets fan, I considered it...but I thought it might get to be too much to keep track of in the long run.

Its something I hope they give us the option for in the future. 6 or 4 man rotations.(Colorado did a 4 man late in the year a year or 2 ago if I recall)

Ive done a 6 man a couple times. It usually doesnt last long. Went with a 4 man for a whole season last year.

I'm in June so I keep it to five man.

[ElroyJetson]

I don't use it regularly but during august and september I'll run it sometimes depending on the schedule.

I actually, from June to playoff time, use a seven man rotation. If pitcher is hot, I'll use him every fifth start. If he gets cold, I use him for the bullpen for situational at bats or for one inning until he comes out of his cold streak. I will never win pitching wins for season, but it helped me get 92 wins and to World Series right now.

I'll do it if I have an injured pitcher or two(this is when I would really employ it) and the replacements don't have a good amount of stamina or seem to be ineffective past 5 innings.
I'll bring up 2 or three "low end" SP ....use 6 man(spot starts) and then use the quick hook and use the extra SP as a bridge to my 8/9th inning RP.
