Today I have two starting pitchers with only 9 out of 10 blocks in their pitching fatigue bars - they aren't completely rested. Those two SP's were the last two to start on Sunday, but one of them only pitched for 1.66 innings, so I really don't understand why he wouldn't be fully rested? Does it sometimes require more than 1 day (of real time) to fully rest up ones pitchers? Thanks

Also, starters get fatigued no matter what, even if it's the minimum 3 batters. Relievers don't get hit with the same energy penalty just by making an appearance. It's kind of odd, but it makes things more realistic. After all, in the regular season you basically never see a starting pitcher get knocked out in the first couple innings and then start again two days later. There is a rotation and it is pretty much followed. Updated Tuesday, May 26 2020 @ 2:39:42 pm PDT
