EDIT -- I'm curious, how do your starters look after three days rest? In the late '80s, and even as far as the mid '90s, there were still a lot of teams running four-man rotations, and I'm wondering if your guys would be "fully rested" or "slightly tired" generally on that kind of a workload.

As I said, I do the same with modern day sims.
I rarely let my starters go over 100 pitches and the are fine.
And my reliever situation is similar. But, I have more reliever spots.
They are definitely not ready to go after 3 days rest. They'll be in the yellow at like 66%
