now i disagree with that.
back in the day, more pitchers threw complete games, and today, you are lucky to get some doofus to get six innings....and the reliever(s) are brought in, but these relievers are part of the watered down pitching as far as i am concerned, they couldnt be starters so they are relegated to the b.p.
itz not like there is a plethora of unbelievable relief pitchers in the game today, if there were, some would be starters by now if they had true talent.
We can respectfully disagree. Only so many pitchers can be starters. All teams have very, very good pitchers who go for an inning or two every couple days.
