Are you still seeing this issue? Have any others reported this? Just trying to gather some more information. Can you provide any data around how frequently this is happening for you?

Yes I am still seeing this. I simmed opening day in my Short A league and saw that one of the games went 23 innings. I looked at the box score, the starter lasted 4 innings (he got hurt) they put in another pitcher and he went 2 innings and the next pitcher went 12.1 innings. They have a full bullpen of 8 pitchers and used only 4 of them.
I checked out the stats of my AAA team and noticed that of the 8 different pitchers that have made starts, they ALL have at least 3 complete games with the team leader at 6......and this is only in early July.
My Major League starters are averaging 7.2 innings per start and 4 of the 5 starters have had at least 1 game where they pitched 9+ innings.
I am using an imported 6.5 league so I dont know if that is the root cause of the "rubber arm" pitchers.
No worries on the delay
