What is the Min/Max Outing?
The Min/Max Outing and Criteria allow you to set what the minimum and maximum innings or batters you want the pitcher to face. The units you can choose is either Innings or Batters. The minimum value set is the absolute minimum that you want your pitchers “to go” so long as they qualify. The reason for having a minimum is so that even if your pitcher has a rough start, you give them the chance to “stay in the game” and “work it out”. Think of someone like Roy Halladay; even if he is hit hard after one inning, you may have him try to work through it and give him a chance to finish what he started. The maximum is primarily for your high leverage relievers; you may want to not use up all their innings in one outing and spread their work across a number of high leverage situations.
