I was into it because I like when teams run out of pitchers like Toronto pretty much had and they used this coming Tuesday's starter in relief. Although Cito said they had Hayhurst available, he didn't use him.

Right, Richmond HR was mentioned in the post. I was basically interpreting RchW's post as saying it was somehow Cecil in control of Wells not getting those balls.
ANd Lynch, I am high on defense, always have been. But, I want to know if pitchers have ANY value in sabremetrics, barring the guy who can K 1+ an inning. Or should we just pay minimum wage for 12 pitchers and invest all our money in the position players.
