You don't need a LR. Find 5 RP that have 9 stuff and throw out the star rating. That covers 5 innings. This is of course not taking into account prime or elite pitchers etc.
I run Logan Verrett (5/5/7) and Joe Blanton (7/8/6) for those rare hairy games where my starters suck out of the gate, and both have an ERA of 2.25. Not too horrible, considering Verrett has pitched a sizeable thousand innings.
I've been trying various combinations of relief pitchers and disregarding some of the star ratings. Interesting point about focusing on stuff rating....

I've given up on LR. Had Blanton for a while and he isn't good. The game leaves him in too long and he gets rocked.
Ignore nexxus6 he's got incorrect information.
