 There is a chart in the help somewhere that gives the different ranges for around when pitchers will start getting fatigued.
I used to use the chart below, and it is a very good indicator when a pitcher is tired.  I also use how many batters a starting pitcher faces.  For example '69 Tom Seaver faced 1,087 batters in 35 starts.  That averages out to 31 batters per game which I go by as well.  I use this stat because I am always leery leaving starters in for a long period of time even if they are a VG/EX starter.  Now I just look to see how many batters they faced during that year and it gives me a good indication of how long I can leave an SP in.  You could also do this for relievers.  What I usually do is open up a notepad document and mark down all of your pitchers on there for easy reference.
