6 Man Rotation Trick

[ninertravel]

So I posted this is Armour Slider thread but I thought I would post here as it's relevant to rosters and seen too.

SO I have been trying to work out how to do a 6 man rotation without screwing the schedule up.. it's tricky. but a lot of this is going to happen in 2021 so I think it is very important. the only way is to it manually but that manually remember to manually select and work out who's turn it is/ here is the big problem with 6 man. I just did this with giving A J Puk a spot start as the 6th starter. I have an Ohtani (2 of him) thanks to Houston who created him as a pitcher. I just keep the position player Ohtani in the team and call him up on his starts for pitching and sned down again with the game (only way to do this it is what it is because SDS changed him and screwed up his two way) but anyhow.

the game makes you only have 13 pitches the rules changed in the real life before the season kicked off last year. and again before this year there is no limit. the the game has the rule that was suppose to be in that you can't start a game with more then 13 pitchers. this makes 6 man rotations next to impossible.

So the only way to really do it is. the old call up and call down trick. as soon as the 5th stater as pitched send him down the next day. The problem is the game now thinks you are using a 4 man rotation so make sure you do that the next day.. now the calendar will say your Ace is about to pitch call up your 6th man. put him in the BP and pitch him before the game..

The game thinks you skipped your ace. but what you do is move your rotation slots down one after the game of your 6th starter. you send your 6th starter back down call up your 5th... your 5th goes into the 1 hole and everyone else moves down 1

Here is the big problem with doing that. your Ace Morale will drop because he is not in the Ace hole now. he is in the 2 slot and will move one down each week until he gets to the 1 again. and so on. so his attributes will drop for a few weeks.slightly

This is the way to do 6 man rotations and the ONLY way I know that doesn't require fiddling around each day trying to work out who's turn it is on the schedule and manually having to pick a pitcher. so some tips if you are looking at a 6 man rotation. the Angels and Seattle are 2 teams that will be using this that we know of.

Anyone else find any other tricks to run a 6 man rotation? in 2021 this will be vital many teams will run it from time to time.

6 Man Rotation Trick

I honestly don’t think there’s really a way, since I’m playing my fantasy Mets on what could’ve been with Cohen’s money by going way above payroll and luxury tax. Here’s my fantasy Mets rotation in mlb 20.

1) Jacob deGrom
2) Noah Syndergaard
3)Carlos Carrasco
4) Trevor Bauer
5) Marcus Stroman

Depth with options

1) Jordan yamamoto
2) Joey Lucchessi
3) David Peterson
4) Thomas Szupucki
5) Taijuan Walker
6) Franklyn Kilome
7) Sean Reid Fowley

I also sometimes use both Robert Gsellman & Seth Lugo as well to start.

Basically if I feel I want to give some guys a day off, depending on the standings late in season, or a roster mode where I can manually set injuries on purpose, I’d either put a player on the injury list, or i shuffle guys up and down the minor league options, mostly keep some in single A in order to try and keep their stamina good or ok, or keep in the bullpen in minors so they can’t use all their stamina, since I rarely play minor league games.

Overall there’s no way to set a 6 man rotation, but this is some of the methods i use, heck it’s almost the same way, for when I send Guys up & down to bring up different arms to help rest the bullpen or to eat a few innings as if there’s another starter in the game. Anyway, these are some ideas of mine.

I hope this helps & I don’t worry too much about the player’s morale, because most likely when you win a lot of games, it can change as a whole.
