I am playing in the modern (now) era.

Sometimes that's a personal pitcher-by-pitcher thing. For example, I had a starter that, as he aged, had a tendency to do one of two things: either get nailed in the first couple innings and settle down or do extremely well through 4-5 and then start giving up the fence. My manager won't listen to quick-hooks, but I tried on his individual strategy, but that kind of ruled out the good games. I settled on a pitch count of 90 and he'd often go 100 and a little change, but at least his HR allowed were reduced to out-of-the-gate situations. He'd eventually retire as one of the league's better starters.
