I have to agree that it really bugged me about "The Big Train" relegated to the pen at age 31, released at 32, and retiring at age 33. He still made the HOF fortunately although i wish this didn't happen. What i should have done is set the pitcher aging lower before i started my league. That may have solved the issue, going to test in a bit to find out for sure, but i do know that since i lowered it after 15 or so years into the league; currently in 1923, that pitchers that came into the league after i lowered the setting are making into their mid 30's at this point and their ratings are still good -and- they're still SP's.
