John Autin at High Heat Stats on why we don't call relievers "firemen" anymore:
With 22 saves and 48 games finished, Gregg became the first pitcher to log 20+ saves and/or 25+ games finished without inheriting a single runner all year.
Remember, it takes a special breed to pitch to the bottom of the order in the 9th inning with a two-run lead and nobody on.

I'm trying to get up
support for a proposed rule change to limit pitching staffs to (random number) 11. Sounds like you might be a candidate to join the crusade?
Getting tired of closers and LOOGys and games that last 12 hours myself.

Isn't limiting pitching staffs to 11 what the original Crusades were about?
Regardless, I’ll support yours, if you support mine: sweeping the oceans clean of all the hideous creatures that dwell within.
