I am old fashioned and don’t like the team getting deep into the pen all the time. If a pitcher can strike them out in 4 or 5 pitches then do it. But if he’s always going deep in the count or they’re fouling them off and he can’t put them away, then he’s letting them hang around until something bad happens
and he’s running his pitch count up after 4 and he’s lucky to get through 5. Then you’re into your pen too early. Too many starts like that and you are deep into the pen too much. That is what is so maddening about running a guy like Liberatore out there. You know that’s what is going to happen.
