A way to include a Starts per cap week variable?

I am in a league where you can only have 12 starts a week, but no limit on relief appearances, making closers deceptively valuable in this league (a points league).  Is there any way to include this variable in auction draft value?

12 starts sounds like a lot for a week.  How many pitchers are on each team?  I'm just curious what percent of pitchers need to be SP to reach the 12 starts.

There are 9 active pitchers every day, so about 2-3 start per day

How many total would be on your roster?  To get 12 starts each week, I would think you'd need 9 SP.

Last year, I would Roster 5 permanent starters, 6 permanent relief pitchers, then stream as many as needed through the week.  I am just trying to figure out if there is a way to better value relief pitchers

We do have the Positional Value which tells you how RPs compare to other RPs. This can be used to show which RPs are worth considering before looking at more SPs.

I've noticed that.  I may be overestimating the importance of picking up a few points from relievers night in night out over good starters, but closers are weighted veeery low even when I put in 5 RP's for settings.  Thanks for responding so quick.
