If you really want a LOOGY and want the game to use him properly in that role, do this:
1. Put him in the setup role
2. Go to the Player Page.
3. Action --> Game Strategy
4. Set the # of pitch limit to 15. 15 is not so low that the guy can't face 2 or 3 lefties in a row, but it'll limit him to usually less than an inning.
For example: Samuel Martel is my LOOGY - his L/R splits are noticeable in ratings. The year before, he was 2-3, 5.51 ERA and a 1.45 WHIP, despite a .266 OBA. He threw 63 2/3 IP in 60 games.
This year, he's 1-2, 1.63 ERA. He's already pitched in 45 games, with only 38 2/3 IP. Even though he's faced more R than L, L's have a miniscule .227 slugging off him - he walks too many hitters.
Regardless, he's more realistic as an assigned LOOGY, and his performance reflects that. Note I do have a 12 man pitching staff, but not to support a LOOGY.

Re: Nice Tip
There's no change in ratings. MR is MR. When I say "set up role", I mean in your staff assignment screen.Breadmanben wrote:Nice tip Jonah. How much of a change in ratings would you consider noticable across the stuff/movement/control? A total of 3 or more (1 in each category)
