I tried a 4 man rotation at first, as I remember my hometown Orioles using a 4 man rotation (of 20 game winners, twice) in the late 60s & early 70s, but my pitchers were still tired when their turn came around in the rotation again.
Of course, I've seen pitch counts in the 120-130 range or more.
No wonder they're tired 4 days later.
