Yeah, Moreno was supposed to start the next day. I had to call a guy up from AAA to make the start. All of my relievers pitched in that game. Moreno really took one for the team. IRL he would have never been put in that game. Probably would have been a position player pitching after Anderson (who is a LOOGY) ran out of gas.

Billy, of the 20,000 notable players for us to consider, I believe that there is a championship team of twenty-five people that we can afford, because everyone else in baseball undervalues them."
