Top teams would lie about who is a "pitcher." Pitcher #'s 5, 6, & 7 are "outfielders who haven't cracked the rotation" and the only way to get them into a game is to give them a few innings in the circle. Or, the coach will designate different pitchers for different tournaments for no other reason than to keep them on his/her roster and away from another team.Here's a comment that may seem backwards or maybe counter-intuitive to this post topic but,...
what if teams could only have a maximum of 3 or 4 pitchers on their roster and that way the top teams would stop collecting 5,6,7 at a time?
Regulate innings by how many games are played per day.
( really just adding to the topic think its fine the way it is)
Well... since a noticeable portion of coach coaches dont coach good overhand throwing mechanics...Where we would find coaches to train new pitchers would be the next problem.
Hmmm supply and demand.I’m not convinced the current model is sustainable. You can probably thank the scumbag tournament directors, the mega teams directors and the college coaches for that. I think they better enjoy it while they can- eventually this bubble will burst. That’s a topic for another day though.
