How bad are the penalties for over pitching one inning guys to 20/20. They often stay in for 20-27 pitches because of how the algorithm works?

It will depend on the guy and his actual estimated pitches per inning. But most guys are only good for 15-17 pitches per inning. If you go 25-27 they’re basically pitching at 20-35% fatigue by the end of that. If they’re sub-1 IP/G guys they’re effectively pitching at 0%.

You really want to keep them below their IP/G pitches.

Thanks, starting next game I'm going to change what I'm doing in one of my leagues based on this. My pitching has been underperforming my expectations and I think I now know why.
