Why use Belzovic in a tight game? Use your better bullpen arms, they’re rested. 

Who is Balazovic anyway? How did he all of a sudden become one of our bullpen stoppers? Came out of nowhere, and probably should go back. What a sad excuse for a bullpen.

There's nothing logical to me about 100 innings being too tough a workload.

We're a generation from 300 IP not being unusual.

How about last year when Duran was coming off a year of injuries and only pitched 16 innings the year before. Send him out as a starter for one fiddy?

My point here (double point, lol) is just take a look at Ober. Middling prospect from a small college with a large, projectable frame. Throws 88.

Send him through a program that extracts any velocity and or spin rate that is possible from this athlete so they can complete successfully at the highest level. Run em out there. They break down. Why are you surprised? Did this happen in the past? Why are outcomes different than the past?
