An important question since we have so very little in the way of starting pitching.

I've often wondered why Dave Winfield never was used as a blowout pitcher by any of his teams. He was a very good college pitcher and I would think he could have performed very well in such situations.

Yes, and he could nail a seagull with pinpoint accuracy! ( Exhibition Stadium, here in Toronto, 1983)

When he played position players rarely pitched.
