I usually on pitch relievers an inning or two at a time anyway. I'm not usually pitching a guy until he's tired. At 7 they day to day stamina seems about right. Usually can get guys 2 days in a row until their stamina gets too low.

Using V3. Any suggestions on what pitch velocity to use?

That is user preference. I go between 4 and 5.

I usually go 6 for Fastball and 7 for breaking ball.

I used Quick Counts for the first time last night. I played 3 innings and literally every count was 1-1. Is that normal for this year? I remember getting a ton of variety in years past. If all the counts are 1-1 it doesn't seem like it would save much time.

Yeah, most counts are 1-1 this year. Other years, that was the more common one but it was more variety in years past. I would say you get a handful of 1-2 or 2-1 counts and maybe 1 or 2 3-1 counts in a game.

You probably save maybe 10-15 minutes each game? But if you have 2 hours to play, that might make a difference between 2 or 3 games.

I usually only play about 1 game a day so I'll probably not use it much again. If I start running short on time I'll just Quick Manage the last two innings or so.

I wish they would let us use quick counts on certain times. I would love to pitch every pitch and then use quick counts while batting.
