C stamina for a closer is over the top. high E- low D stamina is more likely to be found.

You start your closers? I did with mine, but thats because he got B stamina (Dr.Goodjob raised it way higher then I planned and I had a lot of strength and only strength points left at the end).

That's very strange because I once tried a month with my closer to see how he would do and he closed right away. Having strong finisher ability and e or lower stamina (this was my original closer) while begining the season in the majors, still being a rookie at 21 with ability that was not as good as the closer originally on the team (an edited Joba who always ended up closing instead of mariano on the Yanks)

They do in AAA, not the majors though.

Interesting, that was never the case with me. My guy's stuff was pretty strong, maybe your closer isn't good enough?
