This is our first year moving from points to categories and was wondering how most leagues handle pitcher requirements.

Is this normal to require 10 innings min for pitchers with scoring being head to head categories? I put a min on originally at 10 ip, but wanted to know if this was typical and should think about getting rid of that all together?

Do any of yall also have any other rules such as cap pitcher starts or player at bats and if so does it work out pretty well or there issues late in season?

You def need a requirement if you want valid pitching stats. Otherwise people can just throw closers out there and win era and k/9 or whip (if you use them) every week.

25 - 30 is a better requirement.

10 innings ensures you only have to start one guy all week to be safe. Not significant.

Depending on how many pitching positions and roster spots, it can be variable. But If you want SPs to really matter, I'd suggest 30-35 innings in a league with at least 23-25 roster spots.
