I haven't seen in my numerous solo and online leagues great drop offs on my SP's. However i do recall reading an article by Bill James a few years ago that dealt with pitchers who threw a lot of innings in the Bigs and were under the age of 25. Almost every one of them fell on hard times sooner than expected.

I don't know if the game is set up in this way but at least it was noted by James a few years ago. Being a SF Giants fan i am holding my breath on both Lincecum and Cain - IN REAL LIFE.
