There are plenty of bodies in our organization who can work an inning or two. Our skipper is always gonna use 5-7 pitchers a game.Another reason for more bodies. Remember when only a couple guys could throw 100+ mph and that would be a knock out pitch in the 9th. Now it's routine and with spin. It's amazing these guys can pitch 5 innings. You are right, we probably will see a lot more openers and middle relief guys. I am excited to see how it works out for a full season. I wish we could expand rosters and platoon guys. Or allow pitchers to reenter games. Open and close.
