I mean, I know the reason is probably because he's grooming him to come in as a long reliever, but they should probably put in an actual SP who can go more than 2 innings rather than use this parade of relievers before bringing in Lively, right?
Couldn't they give some starting opportunities to Kennedy, Richardson, or Stoudt instead of using all these relievers every 5th game?
It's embarrassing.
Because Bell loves making pitching changes. It makes him feel like a real manager. Same reason he loves pinch hitters and pinch runners and fielding position changes. "Look Dad! I'm managing!"
