Title says it all, currently MLB teams use opening pitchers (referred to as an opener) very often. And it's something that could be an option here as well.
But with the " Starting pitchers will have a minimum of pitch count of 75 and minimum hook of 5 regardless of management settings." it limits the options we could use, including (but not limited too) the one mentioned.

Why can't we set our pitchers strategies without that limitation/minimums? Maybe there's a reason I don't know off. Is there an exploit somewhere in using a strategy we want, not limited to the minimums in place?

Exploitation is a good way of saying this is a bad idea. Real life managers get to actually manage games. We don't.

Don't quite understand what you mean. We have a management page where we can set pitch counts and hooks. That was what I was referring too.

My mention to a possible exploit was based perhaps on something that users/admin discovered in the past (before I started playing). Because I can't see another good reason to have minimum pitch count and hooks for SP's in place.

I was vague in my response because I don't like explaining ways owners can exploit the system. Your suggestion would increase those opportunities. You aren't the first to suggest this. You could search the forums and try to find it. I don't recall what it was titled.
