Low Use players

Posted By RobB

How are players like Eddie Yarnall dealt with ? I recently played a team with Ed Yarnall, who has pitched only 2.2 innings in MLB.
So far he's gone 4 in PB (RealTime), of course not giving up a hit, since he hadn't in real-life...
In reading the manual, there is the statement that pitchers with a certain amount of innings have unlimited use through the first 20% of the season. In RT leagues, this limitation obviously can't apply since only a small number of pitchers have hit that point yet...
Is there anything in the gameplay stopping a manager from using players such as Yarnall or D.T. Cromer in fulltime roles early in the season, regardless of their actual PA's or IP's ?
