No rest for the weary on my team... maybe there should be.

Agreed. Maybe not a full "day's worth," but at least some.

Yeah agreed. The stamina to position players has been a mess for years.

So is it safe to say when the game prompts u to sit someone out should we just decline it and keep the player in?

These are all posts above in the thread that would lead me to believe that that isn't necessarily a true statement....

Even if some on plays 162 games I am sure there are some games where they don't play all 9 innings because they are either up or down by a lot with like 3 innings left or something. So I don't know but if you sub guys out once in a while in like 6-7 inning that may help. While when a player is under 65% fatigue I think there ratings drop by like 10 % or something and I know it increases the changes of getting injured.

What about implementing a stamina slider also for batters?

I love the fact that there is a mechanism that requires you to use other players on your team. Otherwise it's RBI Baseball. You cannot squeeeeee about players wearing Franklin gloves and praising realism and then complain that you don't get 9 guys with 162 GP.

I dislike that it's so drastic. Players get days off, yes. Hurdle in PIT gives players regularly scheduled days off (see Cutch the other day). Resting a player for a day should fill up their energy to full and even a PH appearance shouldn't do anything.

This all being said, give your guys regular time off and replace them in blowouts. Empty your bench in the 7th or 8th if you've got a monster lead and ESPECIALLY your star players. Freeman, Yelich, Seager and Springer always are out if I"m up big.

Are you already playing on Legend difficulty? If not, and you want to be a top team, why not just bump it up a notch so you don't feel like you are being unfair. As for the stamina thing, I've noticed it affects players in some ways right off the bat. Just started a Pirates franchise, first game Marte has a 95 in speed. 2nd game has a 94. 3rd game, 93. And so on. I'm gonna assume other attributes are affected also.
