Rotation Question

[tealc]

Can someone give a run-down on pitching rotations

Mixed 4 man
loose 4 man
strict 5 man
etc etc

Strict 5-man: The #1 pitcher will not pitch again until the #5 starter has pitched.

Loose 5-man: The #5 pitcher will occasionally be skipped if the #1 pitcher has had an extra day off.

Mixed 4/5: The #5 pitcher will be skipped if the #1 pitcher had an extra day off or is well rested.

Loose 4-man: The #5 pitcher we be skipped frequently in favor of the #1 pitcher. The #5 pitcher will be used on occasion in long relief.

Strict 4-man: The #5 pitcher is omitted from the starting rotation -- he will be used as a long reliever or starter in case of injury.
