Then again, Ramirez and Veras were so “good” that their teams gave up on them, correct?
————–
When they were let go, they were young enough that they could still develop; Veras was 25, Edwar was 26. Sturtze was 33

Pitchers are cut for any number of reasons, even more so when they’re RHRP’s which there are no shortage of.

Sturtze, Proctor et al. Big deal, they are dime-a-dozen RH relievers.

Torre deserves our eternal thanks for not warming Mariano up and then not using him too often. Stop bashing Torre already.

It wasn’t overuse so much as Sturtze wasn’t all that good.

The difference is now we have a manger who isn’t an imbecile. Torre destroyed Sturtze through overuse.
