Fast Forward - SP Pulled Early

[jsuess21]

Does anyone play using the fast forward option to sim part of games?

I play offense only and fast forward through my pitching/defense to the next half inning. Most games I do this, my starting pitcher gets pulled before completing the 5th inning.

Any ideas for having the starters pitch longer? I tried the tinkering with the stamina and hook sliders, but nothing seems to have changed.

Try Quick Manage to sim the inning... you are in control of the pitching side still. There you can remove or leave your pitcher to your consideration...

Hope it helps!

That's modern baseball.

Facing a guy for the third time through the order can't happen.

Once you exceed that inning/pitch count:

Your elbow WILL explode.
You WILL need Tommy John surgery.
The franchise WILL lose revenue dollars because of it.

Once an All-Star like Freddie Freeman faces you for the third time in a game, he WILL go deep on you and you WILL in turn have ZERO confidence to pitch the rest of the season.

"can't happen." Are you sure?
