Chan Ho Park
22 July 2008
itchers over the years: they have been forced to overpay for Vicente Padilla, Kevin Millwood, Chan Ho Park and Kenny Rogers in their search for an ace over the last decade, and look how far that's gotten them. By virtue of the fact that fewer runs are scored in pitcher-friendly parks, starters can routinely go deeper into games, therefore putting less pressure on the bullpen. Over the course of 81 games, that can help ease the burden on relievers by a great margin.
