But if we are only getting 4 innings from our weekend starters and having to use 4 pen arms on Fridays, it's going to be tough on our bullpen arms.
Well you can do that on a Sunday maybe, but you need your Friday and Saturday guys to go 6-7 innings. However, as we saw last year, it does not really matter if your starter goes even 8 if your bullpen just blows it in the end or you have to leave your starter out there too long because of no faith in the pen.
