who on earth decided to have unlimited innings pitched....no wonder i'm not catching ground on jt....his pitching staff is terrible yet he is tops in 4 of the 6 categories....that makes sense.....having and drafting a good team > adding and dropping pitchers every day

if you can find a way to feel good about winning if only by having more time than everyone else, by all means congratulations...

He is also leading or 2nd in 5 of the 7 offensive catagories...Not doing it with pitching alone...

Makes it a WHOLE lot easier to draft offensive players when your pitchers have unlimited innings. In my leagues we limit it to 1200 innings. There are 3 SP, 1 RP, and two utility pitcher spots on each team (utility=SP or RP) This gives each pitcher PLENTY of innings to work with (as relievers usually get less than 75 IP in a season) without abusing the system.
When you have unlimited innings, you don't need much of a pitching staff to get good numbers in 2-3 categories. Draft all hitters in the first 5 rounds and you can pretty much guarantee that you'll be near the top in most offensive categories. Even if you draft some pitchers, unlimited innings waters down the pitching stats IMO.
