    Is there a way to make bullpen pitchers always warm

    I am coming back to the Show and I do hitting only. I have a tough time with NL teams because whenever I pinch hit for the pitcher I am always stuck without a warm pitcher for the next inning because I forget.

    Is there any way (setting) to make sure all bullpen pitchers are always warm?

    Yes.

    The option is called "Warm Up Pitchers."

    I think you turn it OFF to accomplish this, but read the description just to be safe.

      I thought that option made you throw warm up pitches when you brought new pitchers in.

            No. I don't believe so.

            Come to think of it, I don't think there's a way to bypass the actual 8 warm up tosses at all? That is, unless turning the option OFF does both?

            It probably does.

            I always warm up my pitchers so I can't say. Either way, the option I gave you will do exactly what you asked in the OP.

              Are you sure about this?

              We're taking the blue/red bars, correct?

              If so, doesn't Warm Up Pitchers OFF make them always have a full red bar? I could have sworn it did...

                no that is the 8 pitches off you do not have to throw them, but think the will still need to be called up in pen to get warm.

                  See, I don't think so Hustlin.

                  Don't get me wrong. You are hands down the 'settings guru' resident on OS. I just don't believe this is correct.

                  Warm up pitches OFF is exactly that. Relievers enter the game warm at all times.

                      Yes there is.

                      Set Pitcher Warm to OFF and your pitchers will always enter the game warm without the 8 pitches and without even appearing in the pen.

                      I never pen my pitchers or 8 pitch warm them and they are always ready because thats how I have my settings.

                        IDK, I play with warm set to off, but have them in pen anyways thinking they would warm up there and not throw the 8 pitches.

                          But you dont have to. You can take them from the bench to the mound and they are warm and ready.

                            dont know have to double check the settings, is there two separate settings warm up pitches and warm pitchers?

                              This is what Im telling you. You dont need to warm pitchers in the pen when its set to OFF
