No punchline, sorry. Just saying many HOF pitchers got their cup in relief before starting a decade plus. If innings are in question the bullpen could be the answer where it's easier to limit them. Is there significant evidence that that's a bad idea? Any research done at all? I can theorize as to reasons, but none I've run across on the subject go past the point of things seeming a certain way.
If Zunino were here I think I'd be more excited about the idea of Walker coming up to start. Walker won't be pitching to any of these other guys next year even, where with Zunino they could be together until free agency or beyond. Not saying that's a reason not to, I could see it as a reason for him to have experience and time with Blanco and C Q.
