@BrendanKutyNJ Great. Now they'll play down a man for another 3 days because Cashman is asleep at the wheel. Though you're basically playing down a man with wells anyway.
@HydenTebow A key factor is that hitters have changed their approach in a way that helps the pitcher. They're all waiting for the 1 pitch they can hit out of the park. They get themselves in bad counts and the phrase "two strike approach" is taboo. They get down 0-2 and swing like it's 2-0.
@HydenTebow There's no dispute pitching is nastier than ever. But you also have a lot of extremely mediocre pitchers pitching key innings because of the over reliance on relief pitching. It's not like every team has 13 quality pitchers. They're lucky if they have 5.
