13-7, 1.15 ERA 77G(all in relief), 172.2 IP 0.93WHIP 8.13 K/9

I've never seen this before. Anyone else? They had tons of pitchers on the reserve roster.
what kind of league settings did you use? any minors? it kind of resembles how ootp was handling deadball pitcher usage, 5-6 mostly starters and 1 or 2 guys who would throw 5-10 IP thru the year.
