The roles have flipped haven't they? Wong is backup, Caballero is starter. Backups get playing time too. I know you have a thing about just playing starters but the general approach is to keep bench players fresh. You don't want them sitting on the bench for two weeks and then have to come in a game. Be interesting to try your approach if we had a baseball team

I'm not paying much attention. I don't know how much he's playing, average backup innings or are they treating him more like a co-starter. He's probably getting more than average because they still like to get him started.

I mentioned when the National talking heads said we should trade some of our pitching depth for hitters that we no longer have pitching depth. And one day after trading two mlb pitchers for a minor leaguer, Case in point:
