    Re: How long do you warm up relievers?

    It all has to do with player fatigues. If a guy has a C rating in the bullpen, he's probably tired or he needs work, but he'll stay in blue even if you warm him up for more than an inning. If a guy has a B rating in the pen, that means he's probably a little tired or a little underused, but he'll be almost ready if you warm him up for some time but not fully ready. The only time a reliever is an A rating is if it's after an off day, or he's gotten work in with a day's rest. Player rating wise does not affect bullpen rating. A player with a D- can have an A rating in the pen as would a player with a A+ rating. These staminas just affect how much they have in the tank.

      I hate having to warm up pitchers. I know that most of you guys like it, but I wish there was a option to turn off the feature, and my relievers would always be warm like video baseball games of yester-year.

            Re: How long do you warm up relievers?

            Yeah, it seems to vary on how long it takes to warm up a pitcher.
            I've had them take 3 batters when A fatigue, and I've seen them take more than an inning (when A fatigue) as well.
            I remember that the warm up time would vary from pitcher to pitcher in other games, such as they did in the old Front Page Sports Baseball games. I wonder if that isn't the case here, as well.
            And obviously, their fatigue level, A, B, C effects it.


            I do have a tip for those who are frustrated with the rusty bullpen because your starters have put in a lot of innings and your bullpen isn't getting enough work:

            If your reliever has a B fatigue, and you didn't play him in the last game, send him out to the pen to warm up for an inning, even if you don't plan to use him.
            It shakes off his rusty cobwebs, and he should be an A fatigue rated pitcher in the next game.

                        This works great. I had my first game of my Dodger's dynasty, and all of my relievers were rated a B. Nomo was pitching well enough, but I gave a few time in the bullpen. Next game, a couple of them were A rated and much more ready to go.
