WHY DID I HAVE SEVERAL GAMES IN LATE APRIL (WITH STARTERS READY TO GO), HAVE GAMES STARTED BY MEMBERS OF MY BULLPEN????? None of which are even long relief????? This all took place on April 28th and 29th 2002.
28th: Starting pitcher was a short reliever (jones), my spot starter (sparks) came in and pitched 3 innings and my # 5 starter (Bere) closed the game!
29th: My SET UP man (Fyhrie) started and Sparks pitched another inning in this one as well (probably because the rest of the bullpen had recently been overused).
I don't know what happened here, but it also appears my next scheduled starter is my #5 man, for all intent and purposes it plans on skipping my #4 starter (Roger Clemmens), who seems to be fully rested as does my WHOLE STARTING rotation since they haven't been starting games. My bullpen is thoroughly exausted and this really stinks! I have a decent strting rotation and very good bullpen put together, but if they are misused like this, I may as well throw in the towel in May.
HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
