I've ran HUNDREDS of test leagues and can confirm it can end up in DISASTER.

Betcha it doesn’t....

I kinda tried it with 4 starters with a low pitch max (probably around 75). It was quite a while ago, so I don't remember exactly how it went, but it wasn't any huge success that made me stick with it.

I remember you being able to get away using RP with 2 pitches as actual starters. Think version OOTP 15 sort of squashed it. Still, liked the innovation at the time.

Dave Buerger is making a compelling early case to be Maine's first Refreshing New Brew winner since Lucca Memmoli in 1995.

Unlike some teams when we trade players they play great! Shop Batavia!

Finally a good week for the Brawlers as we go 4-2 for the week. Ernest Ritchie is tearing it up at the plate and leading he league in hitting for now.

I think Pat had a pitcher with the Washington Bats that was one of the league's best despite his 2 pitch arsenal....I have to look him up.

Martin Carlton. Career reliever til he got to Washington. Pat needs to confirm, but I thought he was a 2 pitch pitcher.

It's been so long but I'm pretty sure he had three pitches.

What happened was we did a version change in the off-season of 1987 I believe. Whatever version we switched to allowed any pitcher with at least three pitches and three stamina, could be a SP. And wow what a pitcher be became. That season he started in relief because I had no idea of the change, but once he switched to SP he was 20-0 in 26 starts. Won our 2nd Brewmaster's that year, even though he went 0-2 in the playoffs. He went on to have three more great seasons as a SP and then Clay edited him out of the league at 35 years old.

I remember it like it was yesterday. Every time I would submit a FA offer, exactly his demands, it would vanish like it never happened. Then once he became a Free-Agent, his demands went from like $15M to $800k. So I offered like $5M or something, and the next sim he just retired.

Fuck you Clay.

It was a Clay joke.
