Have tried this guy in the rotation, and as a closer.  Still pretty new to this game, just asking for ideas on the best way to use him.  Got a few offers for trades for him when I first took over the team last season as well too.

SP with PC of 50/60.

If you want the maximum number of innings out of him I'd give him a PC of 70. He'd only be able to start every 6th day, so if you don't want to micromanage your staff then you could try a lower PC so he'll recover quicker. You'll probably get at least 10% fewer innings per season doing it that way though.

I would be tempted to use him as a Setup A, with a PC of 30.

I liked him better as a starter.  I played around with different PC's, and when in the 70 range or more I found it to be exactly as you said, without an off day he didn't recover in time to start.  Not worried about micromanaging because I seem to be doing that already for all levels with the pitching staffs.

At least its good to know I was on the right track, just wondered if I was missing something obvious or not.

Thanks for the help guys. 

Interesting idea moe.  I might try that with a different guy where development isn't an issue to see how many innings/how long to recover after each outing.

I have a low DUR guy I tried it with, I certainly got a few back-to-backs out of him but once he got fatigued it would take him three or four games to get back to 100%.
