and pitchers just being more garbage overall. starters used to go at least 7 innings regularly before a closer (maybe one long reliever) slipping jimmy Oct 30, 12:32

Analytics is what got Dodgers to the WS. Batters hit starters the third time around, hence the importance of a strong bullpen. Antibody Oct 30, 12:44

weirdly, teams won at least 104 games and WS in more dominant fashion for several decades before analytics were even a thing {nm} slipping jimmy Oct 30, 13:15

Dodgers leading the trend toward shorter starting pitchers (and it's working great!) slipping jimmy Oct 30, 13:59

Orel Hershiser won the 88 WS for the Dodgers with (1) a complete game shutout in Gm 2; and (2) 7 innings of 1-run ball in Gm 5. impossible! slipping jimmy Oct 30, 21:25

Hershiser had shoulder surgery in 1990 and lost 1 and 1/2 season. {nm} Antibody Oct 31, 12:11

the current analytics strategy burns through relief pitchers instead of putting more load on the starters. six or one half dozen {nm} slipping jimmy Oct 31, 12:25
