 When your team has very little in the way of backups, your team has to have these players play everyday. When your team has players with holes in the game, you have to cover a bit. 

Interesting arguments, but neither of which are load management related.

I'm a fan of rotating catchers to keep both healthy. But to limit Jeffers from DH'ing because of workload management? Really??? DH'ing for 4-5 at bats is really taking a tole on him? Have to disagree with that.

If it is taking a toll, there is a problem much more immediate than "workload management"...

Load management is the OP claim why these players are not playing every day, not mine. Your claim is that the successful teams don’t do load management. The lack of continued post season success by the three teams who, according to you, do not do load management was not refuted by you. Now if getting a division championship is your goal, you position would seem valid. Successful teams win division championships

LOL.

Texas 2023.

Houston, 2022.

Atlanta, 2021.

Your argument is nonsensical on its face. And in actual practice.

The Orioles and Yankees fizzle out in the playoffs. The Dodgers have only won a WD is a short series and currently have 12 pitchers on the DL. Atlanta won their WS with 2 players who did not play every game that year as ther series MVPs. With potentially 22 more games in the playoffs maybe there is something to the load management 

Hmmm, between the end of the season and the post season, the player suddenly are worn out and shot, BS.

Did I say they were worn out and shot? Please tell me where I said that. What is BS is making up a position that another person took. Please do not respond if to anything I say if that is the **** you are going to pull

Not to speak for RpR, but if you weren't saying players need load management to be rested for the postseason, what did you mean by this?

"The Orioles and Yankees fizzle out in the playoffs. The Dodgers have only won a WD is a short series and currently have 12 pitchers on the DL. Atlanta won their WS with 2 players who did not play every game that year as ther series MVPs. With potentially 22 more games in the playoffs maybe there is something to the load management 

That's an exact quote from you in this thread.
