If starters don't go deep then there are more opportunities for a reliever to pitch a scoreless inning. Meanwhile someone named Mariano pitches a scoreless inning practically every appearance. Normalizing this list by total bullpen appearances would probably make a significant difference. Not so curious I don't think.

As I alluded in response to an earlier post, maybe having Nolan Ryan bulldogging the Rangers is their best move since they hired Teddie Baseball to manage them, back when they were still the {OMG!} Washington Senators.

Teams that use their bullpens a lot, even with good results, tend to see that bullpen wear down by the end of the season. The Padres' bullpen may help them get to the playoffs, but will they have enough gas down the stretch? The meaning of the list is highly debatable.
