The only catch is, and I've seen John Smoltz talk about this... we've been to the World Series two straight years. We've logged a lot of extra miles on Davis and Herrera's arms.
Dayton knows this though, and that's why he talked about getting more innings out of the starters next year. One, it's just smart. Two, I'm guessing Ned will be extra careful about resting our big bullpen guys early next year so we can make another run. We got by this year, but it'll probably be tough to win 2 years in a row getting less innings from the starters.
