    soooo which is it , ohms ?

    in the links i provide you indicate YES there is a relationship between endurance and injury,

    yet your reply here indicated otherwise.

    i iz confuzed

    This, from the article, is still true:
    Well if BM doesn't follow this, it should.

    I honestly don't even know if I want to know. No one knows IRL so we should we.

    Some people will baby their pitchers and get injuries.

    Some will throw their pitchers to the wolves and get injuries.

    I think we need to know because if pitch counts do indeed affect injury rates, than it's imperitive that the in-game pitch counts are tweaked to be more realistic.

    Actual pitch counts don't, pitcher usage does.

    Could you define this a little bit more?

    It seems to me that allowing a guy to throw 170 pitches is pitcher usage

    ...I'm not sure if I should. It's not my code to give away, you know?

    Summed up, Filihok, I'd advise, when in doubt, try not to exceed any hurler's p-c(i.e. his "endurance rating" number) to any great degree, in each game...that, imo, is playing it safe.

    Well, you're not giving the CODE away, just the effect of the code. I mean I could play 100 seasons and only focus on the injuries and figure it out - we just asked for how something works, not how it's coded. But w/e.

    Exactly how something works = how it's coded

    Re: Pitch Counts too High

    I could find the answer by observing the results. He doesn't need to give the entire formula, but he could say games played matter or don't, pitch count exceding matters or not, pitching when tired or not given excess rest counts, or anything really. I'm not asking for exact formulas here. Trust me, if I were to steal code it wouldn't be from BM.

    And no they aren't the same. I could code something to do the exact same thing several different ways.

    This isn't a subject that's open to discussion. It's between Clay and I.
