## Resource

The Mariners are testing a bold new pitching strategy: Luis Castillo and Bryce Miller tag-teaming games to keep hitters off-balance and preserve bullpen depth. Even with Castillo dominating, the plan kept him out of the game — leaving him visibly frustrated and Miller feeling like he’s back in college. The team insists this unconventional approach is the best way to manage their arms, but it’s clearly not easy on the players. Could this be the future of pitching strategy — or just a risky experiment? Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
