Player fatigue...what can be done?

Why do I feel like I'm always at a disadvantage when I'm playing against the computer when it comes to fatigue? I'm 11 games in to my season with the Cardinals, and I've already had to sit Pujols twice, Ankiel twice, Ludwick twice, and a couple others at least once.

Game 12 is against the Cubs. Their team has full health and mine is all over board in terms of the health bars. What is going on what is the resolution? Pujols in real life has not had a day off yet. However, if I had played him consecutively throughout these 11 games, his health bar would be less than a 1/4 full.

I love this game, but this absolutely puzzles me. Can anyone please shed some light on a problem that doesn't seem to have been fixed for the past several versions of this game?

Thanks!

You have to manually save your season or franchise after you are done playing a game. It auto-saves but you have to manually save it again. This helps the problem but doesn't fix it.

Re: Player fatigue...what can be done?

First day of my franchise I take out a gigantic loan and buy the chartered flight. I also buy every other available facility that could impact performance, but I don't remember whether or not any of those help with fatigue.

It helps a lot. I still have to sit guys, but at a pretty realistic rate. The only issue I have with batter stamina at this point is the fact that DH somehow burns through energy. I'm in the 10th game of my Jays franchise and I've had to sit my usual DH twice. That seems like a bug, considering in real life DH is often used as a day off for a position player.

Yes, I bought the first class flight and really haven't seen any issues. I would recommend doing this asap.

Re: Player fatigue...what can be done?

Guys...how far down is the bar when you think you MUST rest players?
I'm just curious?

I have had Longoria, Upton, and Crawford down to about 40% or so. I have decided to rest if they get to around 25 to 30% or so.
