I can only remember 1 time that MSU had more than 7 reliable arms. That was 2016, with 2013 being about as good. Then half the staff got TJ'ed before the 2017 season could even start.

(1) Graveman (2) Girodo (3) Ross Mitchell (4) Holder (5) Bracewell <when healthy> (6) Cox (7) Fitts
------ Scary Ride Level ----
(8) Evan Mitchell (9) Pollorena (10) Lindgren (11) V Tatum

This was dead bat time, so even decent guys with +4 ERA where liabilities, like +7 ERAs today.

Even in 2016, that had the best starting Corp in recent memory, the Bullpen was not the best. Humphries closing was stressful as hell.

(1) D. Hudson (2) Sexton (3) Houston (4) D. Brown (5) Pilk (6) Rigby (7) B Smith (8) K James

(9) Humphries, (10) Cyr (11) Hughes (pre-injury much better) (12) Breaux (pre-injury much better)
