I always thought it would be 2 relievers, we got.  I guess this is where we should be happy Rizzo got 3, and Strickland looks much better than I'd have expected.

Are 31 yo mlb relievers really that bad out of shape that they can't run 90 ft without pulling a hammy?   Or is it just a matter of not warming up?  I love the compete level, but he really needed to know his body there.



If you're not used to sprinting (and maybe not well hydrated) that could easily happen. But a pitcher should be doing some sprints in his workouts.
