Dirty little secret about the bullpen which was true 50 years ago and is still true today.. Bullpen arms are bullpen arms simply because they're not good enough to be starters.. No kid ever grew up with the express desire to grow up to be a middle relief pitcher..
be honest now..When your first grade teacher asked what you want to be when you grow up how many of you said emphatically, "Middle relief pitcher!" Oh, what a low bar as a youngster..
Teacher: "OK, sit down Johnny."
