Yes. Beta is experimenting with 9 to 12 man staffs. Hopefully we can get it tested and moved over in September.August 17, 2006 at 02:34AM View BBCode

What's the point of the experiment? What hypothesis are you testing?

I don't really have a hypothisis I'm testing, more like trying to see how to abuse the system. Planning to try a couple of different ideas over the next couple of quarters just to see.August 17, 2006 at 03:48AM View BBCode
Ok so the first way was a built to win pitching arrangment and you are moving settings to see just how much you can milk the IC's? If So I would like detail copies of the settings so when I next need to develop some pitchers I have proven methods :spin:August 17, 2006 at 12:32PM View BBCode
First lets see if it works. I'm starting at this point with building 12 pitchers at once to see if it can be done (although some are vets and aren't necessarily being built).September 01, 2006 at 01:53AM View BBCode
OK, a full season experimenting with a ten man rotation yielded the following ICsSeptember 08, 2006 at 11:28PM View BBCode
71 games into the 1957 season. Gil Meehan has appeared in 48 games (fewest on the team) and made 38 starts from the long Reliever A slot and pitched 166.1 innings. He's got 35 improvement chances thus far while the other 8 pitchers are 20-28 (appeared in 52-68 games with 35-98 innings).September 14, 2006 at 01:25PM View BBCode
OK, spent the 1957 season trying to get Meehan as many ICs as possible. He pitched in 108 games starting 85 of them and threw 378 innings all from the Long Reliever A slot in a 9 man pitching staff. With all that he managed 64 improvements (the rest of the staff all had 47-58)Pages: 1
