Now that we're about 3/4 of the way through the season....
We have a limit of 162 games started by starting pitchers.
What I'm gonna suggest, since we have to police ourselves on this (and if anyone has a better idea, I'm open to suggestions) is the following:
-- As you get close to the 162 game limit -159, 160, 161 - please do not have the number of SPs in your starting lineup for the following day that will take you over the 162 game limit.
In other words, if Monday just ended and you are at 161, please do not schedule 2 SPs for Tuesday. Schedule only one.
-- If you go over the limit, then on the day that you do I will deduct from your total score the highest scoring game or games on the day you went over the limit.
In other words, if Monday just ended and you are at 161 and you schedule 3 SPs for Tuesday, I will deduct the two highest scoring games on Tuesday from your total score.
This should give everyone the incentive to hit 162 right on the nose, and will eliminate the need for additional bookkeeping to keep track of deductions.
As I say, though, if anyone has a better idea, I'm open to suggestions.
