The point is for competitive balance, not a problem now but if people start stockpiling minor league players, then they will start stockpiling their bench too and will field a less competitive team.


Better than someone keeping Minors and DL players in their starting lineup.

It might be delayed scoring, but as of now I am not getting credit for my K/9, Era, and whip categories. It doesn't have anything recorded there for my team. I have 38 innings pitched, so I met the required minimum and shouldn't lose stats.

The standings page has me as 3-9 now. It should be 6-6 with those three categories I am not getting credit for.

Again it may just be a delay. But it was counting those stats all week until the last game tonight was finished.

its showing 5-7 on my page.

K, ERA and whip are blank but it gives you credit for winning ERA and whip. the dashes are green which represent a won category

Live scoring shows 5-7, the overall standings page on the league home screen shows 3-9, but it actually was 6-6

I won:
HR: 6 to 4
RBI: 27 to 22
S/h: 9 to 4
Era: 1.42 to 2.25
K/9: 8.76 to 6.45
Whip: .698 to .900

You didn't meet the minimum number of games started, according to Fantrax.

Don't yell at me, I have no idea what that means.

ETA: Found it.

Team Minimum and Maximum Requirements per Scoring Period
Scoring Category
Min
Max
Innings Pitched - Pitching
35
None
Games Started - Pitching
6
None
If a maximum has been met or exceeded: Do nothing.
If a minimum has not been met by end of scoring period: The team will get a loss for each averaged hitting (e.g. Avg, Slg, etc.) or pitching stat (e.g. ERA, WHIP, etc.), depending on the scoring category whose minimum has not been met, for the scoring period.

I've been complaining about something similar all day.

You're required to keep throwing pitchers despite Innings Pitched being a category up for grabs and the innings pitch requirement so high (35).

How that makes any sense, I do not know.

And I hope other owners would agree to call for a vote and change immediately.

C. Rule changes during the season require 3/4ths of the voters voting to agree for the rule to pass.

Read a little further down in the constitution. It says:

D. Stat Requirements
1. Each team must pitch a minimum of 35 IP OR have at least six starts per week.

Red even confirmed that in another thread. I only made 2 starts but had 38 IP, so I should be good according to this line in the constitution.

I threw 46 IP and only had 5 games started


Earl, one of the brilliant masterminds behind this wonderful scoring system, had 3 starts going into the day and had to stream a Casey Sadler start just to hit his IP limit

Needless to say we both get credited with nothing for K/9, ERA and whip since we didnt throw 6 starts

The people that made the rule take it too personal. We've already tried.

As for TTT, it's only one or the other. You don't need 6 starts if you hit the 35IP. Looks like a glitch

But the requirements must stay. It's the IP stat that fricks everything up

The rule itself looks to be set up where you need to hit 35 and 6 starts. At least that's what I thought when I was looking earlier

I always thought it was one or the other. That would be quite the wrench

I think LE is right, it's supposed to be one or the other.

Just a mishap by Redd in setting up the league.

You agree with must having all 9 SP spots filled at all times, otherwise it's considered an illegal lineup and all stats accumulated that day don't count?

Because I can get behind that if Innings Pitched wasn't a category and there wasn't such a high IP requirement.

Both of those factors negate the advantage of "sitting on a lead". 35 IP is a lot. If you get 35 dominant innings, hey, more power to ya

But you can't have both. Makes no sense to me.

Without the requirements, you can seemingly win 3 categories with only a handful of innings.

It's hard to throw it out just because of 1 stupid category. 3 vs 1

I think there's some miscommunication.

I'm arguing it's ridiculous to have to have all 9 active pitching slots filled at all times. Especially with Innings Pitched being a category coupled with a high IP requirement.

You can have 45 innings thrown going into Sunday, have four SPs pitching that day, and you can only bench those SPs for as many bench pitchers you have.

11 total pitchers = you can bench 2 of the starters
12 = 3

ETA: Gyno said it perfectly earlier in the thread from the link he just posted. You're essentially not allowed to punt the category Innings Pitched.

Looks like the intention was 35 or 6 starts.
