I just started 1915 last night. Default settings have it set to 4 starters, 3 relief pitchers. Well right away I see this will drive me nuts. There's going to be guys making 40 or more relief appearances easily. So, I changed it to 5 starters, 1 relief pitcher. Still think the one relief pitcher will get more appearances than desired, but not as bad as the default way. Thing is, the top 2 starters overall will end up getting less starts, so it will be interesting to see how that works out. I would really like to see how the game would play with 6 man rotation(rotation just because that's what the game calls it) and no bullpen. But, always start the highest rested needs to prioritize the the top 2 starters big time and then on a lesser basis prioritize the 3rd and 4th starters and only use 5 and 6 on a spot start basis. Right now if you set it to 6 man rotation, you are for the most part rolling with a 5 man rotation starts wise.

Have you seen JoefromChicago's work on this DW? Worth looking at for insights on this very subject.
