I've used a few Relief Pitchers from 2014 and they haven't been very good for me.

How have any of the 2014 players been for you?

I've got Dellin Betances in a high cap progressive. So far, 15 innings in, his ERA is..... 0.00.

No complaints!

67 games into a $85m cap using:
Betances; 3.68 ERA, .252 OAV, 1.5 whip, 4.30 bb/9
Robertson: 3.00 ERA, .183 OAV, 0.97 WHIP, 2.70 bb/9
Pineda (set as relief): 1.27 ERA, .185 OAV, 0.74 whip, 0.51 bb/9
all three playing home at new Yankee stadium, each in around 30-35 IP

Earlier used Ken Giles and he was lights out. Believe $90mm cap (records gone)

also used Romo in a theme (gave up a ton of HRs as expected) and Casilla ( 56 ip, 3.70 era, .238 oav, 1.25 whip, 3.05 bb/9 in set up A role)

used an all '14 lineup in a box-score theme league, $90M, Rogers Centre - finished 87-75, 2nd place, WC birth


Brantley, Michael 193H 44-2B 15HR 102RBI 44/64-BB/K(672 AB's) 27/6-SB/CS .287/.337/.423

Gordon, Dee 122RS 210H 9-3B 70/39-SB/CS .313/.361/.382

Beltre, Adrian 174H 22HR 94RBI .274/.325/.414

Martinez, Victor 100RS 188H 36-2B 30HR 129RBI 71/46-BB/K (633 AB's) .297/.373/.506

McCutchen, Andrew 103RS 181H 33-2B 4-3B 20HR 92RBI 82/132-BB/K (616 AB's) 13/2 - SB/CS .294/.383/.458

Reyes, Jose 159H 27-2B 6HR 67RBI 39/53 - BB/K (593 AB's) 18/2 - SB/CS .268/.315/.351

Bautista, Jose 94RS 164H 24HR 96RBI 106/96-BB/K (588 AB's) .279/.394/.446

(had a L/R platoon at C - John Jaso & Chris Ianetta - neither producing noteworthy #'s)

(( '14 pitchers' seasons were allowed to be twisted ))

After 30 2/3 innings, at Setup A, in my all years progressive, Betances still has a 0.00 ERA. Average cap in this league is 130 million or so.

Looks like VMart and Gordon were good values in this iteration

Half-way through the season, 46 IP, .146 AVG against, 0.20 ERA

Just completed an Open League with Carlos Carrasco.  Wasn't great, wasn't bad.  Merely OK (home was AT&T Park).
