## Resource

What if the Detroit Tigers ditched the bullpen entirely and went full-on eight-man rotation? A wild but fascinating theory sparked by Keider Montero’s bullpen stint suggests pairing starters every four days—Skubal & Montero, Mize & Olson, Melton & Jobe, Valdez & Flaherty. While impractical for real baseball (recovery, routines, and not every starter can pitch like Montero), it highlights the Tigers’ deep pitching talent and pushes the limits of conventional strategy. Stats back it up: Flaherty’s 1.90 ERA, Montero’s consistency, Melton’s return brilliance. It’s not a real plan—but it’s a fun, bold thought experiment that might just spark future innovation.
