You don't have to wait a few days.

Pitching is valued at somewhat less than it is in the Salary Cap game - where we always said it was too high - because there will be a negative value for pitcher's losses which should be not quite be offset by points awarded for starts, saves, and holds.

Just look at last year's scoring totals for this game, and see what percentage of the points were for pitching and what percentage were for offense.

Don't forget...Even though you're not getting points for the SP's win when the bullpen gets it as you would in the Salary Cap game (and as DB would have for Pittsburgh today), and only getting points for what the SP himself accomplishes, that's being made up for the separate points that you're getting for relief pitching (as DB points out with his comment about Turnbow's points).
