RTTS Starting Pitcher Stamina Vs. Durability

[Shpati]

Hello,

I began a RTTS as a starting pitcher. Two stats that I am confused about are Stamina and Durability

Stamina, is under your "Pitching" stats. And it says it affects how quickly pitchers lose energy. But it doesn't say anything about recovering energy on your days off.

However, Durability is under "Fielding & Baserunning", so I'm not sure if this stat is for position players or if it actually affects pitchers. It does say it affects the rate at which you recover energy, but I'm not sure if it affects pitchers since it was not under the "Pitching" stats.

Lot of the times, I will start games with 80-90% energy, not 100%. So I wanted to know if putting points into Durability will help this or if I'm just wasting my points.

Re: RTTS Starting Pitcher Stamina Vs. Durability

The two sort of work together for pitchers.

STA probably has the most to say, but DUR makes some difference. The effect mentioned for DUR probably does not impact pitchers because that's what STA is for. In terms of energy, DUR = STA for non-pitchers.

For me, I've noticed DUR having an impact with how much pitches take out of you or perhaps how much high stress/lots of pitches in an inning take out of you.

STA impacts how fast you get tired as it your energy pool and governs how many pitches, in general, until you start tiring and then out of energy completely.

DUR seems to impact how much energy does a pitch take from you (either in general or in situations where it's triggered, that part I'm not sure...could be both, etc).

And, of course, DUR is your injury rate, so it's worth improving if only for that reason.

Not sure how much/if any durability effects recovering stamina for pitchers but... If you don't up it your gonna find yourself looking down the barrel of a lot of long injuries.

And with my experience all the injuries in RTTS tend to be long ones.
