What is your opinion about Starter Stamina at 8?

I currently have the slider at 7. Do you think 8 is more appropriate? By the way, this is for Human vs Cpu games only. Thanks

Re: What is your opinion about Starter Stamina at 8?

At 7, my starters are throwing about 115 pitches when they run out of gas. I'm getting about 5 complete games per week for all 30 teams. Usually from the number one starter . So complete games are a rarity yet not impossible.
Now, if you raise to eight... You're going to see a higher pitch count and more complete games. Which is ok if that's what you want. But that's more in line with baseball back in the late 60's and early seventies.
Go to Baseball-Reference and look up the box scores from the mid seventies. Most starters went eight innings. Today, they go about 6.
Again, thats fine if thats what youre after.

Increasing the slider by just one click probably won't cause a very noticeable change... maybe a difference of several pitches before your pitcher exhausts energy:

I would say eight is too many, but that's just me. I personally play on six.

Yeah, I think it's totally feasible at 8. Like I said, it just depends on your philosophy.
