Do we have to play a full lineup daily? The reason I ask is if I have a a SP or 2 that absolutely are going to destroy my ERA/WHIP/Everything, is there anything stopping me from just leaving them on the bench? Didn't see anything in the rules.

Nope you can leave them on the bench if you think they are not going to perform well. Just hit the 700 IP minimum to qualify for Era and Whip. The only rule we have is to be competitive, don't bench guys you think are going to do well because you want a better draft pick, and stay on top of setting your lineup to the best of your ability.

I believe the IP min is 1000.

Looks like we need to update that.

Yeah I actually gave a recommendation on that a few weeks ago under the rules suggestion folder

I saw you posted the rule, but I didn't realize it differed from the ESPN site.

Yeah sorry I should post less.... The post I'm referring to is the one below:
Why not create a minimum ABs threshold similar to the minimum IP threshold?
On average a starter gets 3.125 ABs per game. With 14 offensive category starters in our league that is roughly 43.75 ABs a night.
A threshold of 1250 ABs can easily be reached in 28.5 game days by a full slate of starters or just over a month, so that we account for days off.
So a threshold of 2500 ABs for an entire season should be no problem. I'm over that threshold now as are probably most of you. However I think putting that number in the rules allows for there to be more consistency.
Thoughts?
