I'm not sure I understand where you're coming from, JL.

Wouldn't putting an inning limit for an entire staff be more realistic than say not having an inning limit and have someone go through waivers everyday to make sure that all RP positions are active that day? To me, the latter is unrealistic.

Just to make sure, I don't think anyone is talking about an innings limit on just relief pitchers. The limit would be for the entire staff and would closely estimate the number of innings pitched for an entire season for the average baseball team (some number slightly above 1,458 innings (9 x 162)).

Once you have you're 1500 or so innings, you can spend it anyway you like.

Or am I not understanding your concern?
