http://www.whatifsports.com/hbd/Pages/Popups/PlayerProfile.aspx?pid=1001043 Bill Gomes is my best pitcher and starting Game 7 of the WS. Unfortunately, he is only at 84 stamina for the game. How much of a drop off should I expect? I have raised call to the bullpen from 1 to 3. Should I go higher?

I would say a bullpen call of 3 would be fine. Just lower his pitch count a little and turn him loose, he should still dominate.

I wouldn't necessarily tandem him, but would definitely lower the TPC/MPC and the pull setting for him. EVERYBODY ELSE, even your other SP's, are in the bullpen with lower TPC's and pull settings as well.

WS game 7, there's no tomorrow to worry about.

He could be OK. leave the pull at 3 and let him pitch. put everyone else in your bullpen.

Thanks everyone. I will put him to 3 and move his TPC/MPC down a little.

Let him pitch until he can't anymore. Then again, you are facing me in game 7 so I have a bias opinion. GL slurie....should be a great game 7!

he's your best pitcher but how close is your 2nd best and is he fully rested? i would think long and hard before starting someone with 84 fatigue...

The other top 2 pitchers pitched game 5 and 6. I have put my 4th best pitcher at Long Relief A.

Lost the game. Gomes gave up 5 in 3 innings. My 4th best pitcher pitched 5 scoreless innings afterwards. Final score: 5-2.
