I'm not real experienced in lower caps, what kind of IP is safe with no AAA at $65 million?

For the sake of discussion..

I'd guess off top of pate, all other things being equal, you could get away with reducing it 8% going from $80M to 60M.

From what I'm reading in older posts the number seems to be around 1250 to 1350, seems very low but a lot of posts are saying that playing without fatigue is almost impossible.

I'd suggest taking 1350 then reducing it by 8% or so, as long as it's not a hitter's ballpark or pro-hitting/walking theme and if you have good, tight defense. That's 1242, give or take. The idea that one ever has to set up a team in any normal theme where one must get into pitching fatigue trouble is just... sort of lame.

If you think that's low, I suggest buying a few more mop-up innings. Owners tend to ignore the cheap pitchers with 40+ IP/162.

Plus helpful discussion of strategy... even Q&A and tips.
