From 1990 to 2007 each year you had to start at least 35 to lead the league, often times 36 and once 37. In the AL the past 3 years had a leader with 34!?
So, any ideas? Do I need to add a new era setting for endurance, called 'babies'?!

Haha, they do baby pitchers now a days. Even when they have days off now, they usually don't skip a guy to get back to number 1. They treat the pitchers as if they are so fragile, which in turn has made them become fragile. Its really quite unreal.
