I understand the strategies and the different scenarios in play. And I don't have a problem with the category setup that creates that. Based on your assertion, teams will throw 35 IP almost every time anyway. If that's the case, why not eliminate the possibility of a 3 start week then? If a 3-start week is a myth, what is the 25 limit enforcing? It sounds like it's just leaving open the possibility, albeit unlikely, that someone can take advantage of the low limit in a perfect scenario. Let's just push to 35 and not worry about it.


I had a post detailing all of the playoff teams SP but my iPad deleted it

It showed me that all of the teams had 5 legit guys they threw at times all year. Most had 3 studs. A SP for every 5 innings, basically.

While every team will face the same circumstances w 35 inning, do you really want to scrape the barrel for those extra 2 SPs every week?

How many owners in your 35 inning league? Can you snapshot your matchup from last week with who threw what?

In the end we can vote and see what the majority wants. IM fine with that

It's a 12-team league with 8 bench spots and 15 minor league spots (Some of which are in the majors but with milb eligibility). So yeah, we have a better bench. But do you think we'd be rolling with Bronson Arroyo on a weekly basis with 35? You've already insinuated that most teams hit the 35 anyway. I don't think we would be scraping the barrel. We'd just be eliminating a 25 IP week. Hell, split the difference and make it 30. Or leave it the same. I'm burned out on talking about it. I'm grabbing a beer and watching sponge bob.
