Are coaches more likely to leave guys in longer..

When they are in Game 1 of a 4 game series?

I'm talking over in the TEX/BAL game. Two pitchers that get hit alot will probably be left in unless allowed 6+ run in 2 innings to not pressure the bullpen so early in the series. Am I right thinking this? This seems too good to be true..

Bullpens do not reset series by series. If a bullpen was overused in the B4 series, its has further implications for the next series.

Yesterday Orioles bullpen used 8 pitchers, who cumulatively threw 191 pitches. That is 261% over league average. That pen is tired. If Brain Matusz does not go 7 innings, TX could have a field day.

I knew they HAD to be stretched thin.. I just figured if BAL got in a tough spot they just might leave the poor bastard in
