I've heard that what matters is how high their stamina is (ideally 10 or greater) and that they have at least 3 decent pitches.

I have one reliever in my fictional league I'd like to try and convert. He has a stamina of 13 and the following:

Fastball = 14
Curveball= 15
Changeup = 3/4

He's a 4 Star overall player but when I switch him to a Starter, he drops to half a star, but his potential stays the same.

Can this be done as I'd really like to slot this guy in as a bottom of the rotation starter on my team (which is lowsy)

Thanks Folks.
I've seen this work well (even with 2 pitch CL or MR guys) in lots of online leagues, am yet to really try it in a single player league. ONe guy was a bonafide closer, he was adjusted to a 0.5 star SP but still with 5 potential, within one season eh was nearly 5* on actual ratings as an SP and went 17 games unbeaten at one stage.

I also had a 4 pitch reliever with low stamina (3 / 10), who I used to spot start when a front liner got injured, he went pretty well too.
