Of course, they'll wait until September, and then use the innings limit as an excuse for not using him.<br /><br />The problem with the innings limit concept is, it assumes every pitcher should be treated the same as every other pitcher, which doesn't seem true on the face of it. Granted, it's the "safe" route to take, and there's nothing wrong with that, per se. Except I would like to see the actual statistical results (yes, numbers) that prove it works. Of pitchers held to innings limits when they were young, how many ended up having arm or shoulder problems anyway? Is their percentage of surgery statistically better than young guys who have no limit, or have a meaningfully higher limit or innings? (By the way, is it really an innings limit? I imagine there's a pitch count involved that would be more important, so it should probably be called a pitch limit. But, semantics.)<br /><br />Are there any pitchers who haven't been subject to a limit that would represent a fair sample against which we could compare?<br /><br />Lots of questions I don't know the answers to. I do recall, however, that the innings limit really worked well for Joba...*cough*...so I have that stuck in my head for better or worse.JMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09876016557456927299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3932285159851204335.post-11048704644720733012019-07-30T13:02:38.779-04:002019-07-30T13:02:38.779-04:00Well the fact is that the yanks really dont have m...Well the fact is that the yanks really dont have much choice other than to pull a rabbit out of the hat.

I hadn't thought about Dooley Womack for a long, long time. <br /><br />Baseball Reference says he's alive, 79 years old, and grossed 5.0 WAR in his career. Record of 19 wins, 18 losses, 302 innings pitched. <br /><br />As a result of his name/mention on this website, I found a Wikipedia page devoted to DW (think about that for a half-second) --<br /><br />https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dooley_Womack<br /><br />Joe Formerlyof Brooklynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16970448525840486063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3932285159851204335.post-7108453985907802019-07-30T11:47:52.933-04:002019-07-30T11:47:52.933-04:00I agree that this has always been the received wis...I agree that this has always been the received wisdom, and it would be hard to get any starter to buy into this. But if the staff is as putrid as ours, maybe it's time for some quick hooks.

Yikes.<br /><br />I think Jordan Montgomery will be back at the end of August but likely not enough time to stretch him out. Okay, on this team a starter's 75 pitches brings them into the third inning, so perhaps he will start a few games. Dellin is a good bet to make it back with a few weeks to get him primed for the pen. At least we are better off with them than Tarpley, Hale and Holder. Same with Severino if we are lucky.<br /><br />And Ceeja, if you lifted a starter after an inning and started him 2 days later it would ruin any structure and hurt the other starters by giving them to much or too little days rest.Carl J.

The Yankees edged out Chicago by one game, not likely without Mel.<br />The point is, he was ready. Deivi needs more time.
