Pitcher with 20 wins, 20 losses in same season

March 07, 2012 at 06:25PM View BBCode

I've been experimenting with my RP settings to see how many innings I can get him, and how many ICs if I leave him in regardless of how well or not he pitches. It's been fun watching him destroy the league record for K's and IP while also getting 20 wins and 20 losses.

That's some real fine abuse there Matt.

Thanks. Tim taught me everything I know. :D

That is fantastic...I am quite impressed! I assume the VEL/CTRL ICs will be capped around 40 combined, and that the extra 20 ICs will all go towards END.

it is truly awesome. i once had a reliever in the old sandy koufax league that won 30 games (i have tried to find the card, but its hopeless). but it was not as awesome as this is.

Long before Tyson put the restraints in, remember when we could run 4 man rotations ......sigh, I played in the Al Simmons League with one of the great "gamers" of the game Brian Lucy. Blucy figured out how to really work his stud pitchers as witnessed below.

Check out the 1961 season on [url=http://www.simdynasty.com/player.jsp?id=1668539]this guy[/url] for abuse.

Wow, 573 innings! I bow to Blucy, though I never played in a league with him. In 1961 Suppan got 71 improvements. Amazing. Jestadt will end up with 61, possibly 62. I'm hoping he gets 8-10 converted ICs towards endurance to turn him into a starter. Then I've suddenly got an A- overall 25 year old SP. Probably won't be able to abuse him next season in quite the same way, but I intend to try.

blucy was the straight awesome. i am happy to report that bill powell racked up 91 ic though, back in the leather helment days.

This is a different kind of unrealistic that frustrates me, because I don't like to see owners get rewarded with good performance in situations that are humanly impossible:

Arms need to start falling off, or at least performance should suffer when you are clearly overworking the guys.

Well...not for some humans...

75 complete games in the 1879 season. Incredible.

And while we're on the topic of incredible stats, look at Matt Kilroy's amazing strikeout total from the 1886 season, at the still-wet-behind-the-ears age of 20: http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/k/kilroma01.shtml

They were tossing underhand. It was practically softball.

You know, he could've walked into Dr. Andrew's office and just asked for Tommy John surgery. (I love how the 572 innings made his 300+ innings in 2 consecutive seasons look like nothing)

Any chance you have the link to Brian Lucy? I kinda wanna see now.

There was this guy in beta. Went 22-23 and won the ROY (at age 31) all in relief. http://beta.simdynasty.com/player.jsp?player=nobody&mode=stats&id=67178

As an update on Jestadt, he gained 6 improvements to endurance and surpassed the B- threshold. I may try a similar format this upcoming season as I did the previous one, letting him start games and stay in no matter what for the first 2 months of the season, then switch him to the pen and give him the ball every third game for 7+ innings for the remainder of the season. Should end up with stats similar to what he just did.

yeah, with these things you don't ever want to run out too far on the games end, and have to catch up on the starts to get to 1/4 plus one. in case it gets injured.

Jestadt just completed his third season, and lost 30 games in the process. But [url=http://simdynasty.com/player.jsp?mode=player&playername=nobody&id=8696528]getting 312 K's[/url] certainly softens the blow.

[url=http://www.baseball-reference.com/players/r/roberro01.shtml]Robin Roberts[/url] is the first 1950 or later guy to appear on the list posted above. He, of course, did most of his damage as a starter.
