13 Pitcher Limit

What do you think? Will it have any effect on the game? Personally I don't see it making too much of a difference

Come Monday, there is going to be a little more room in big league bullpens, from Seattle to Tampa Bay, and plenty of places in between | 97.1 The Ticket

has there ever been a case of a team needing more than 13 pitchers?

Yes, it will have an impact on how the strategy is played. You will see more position players pitching in blowouts. You may see starters going a little longer as well. In double headers their won't be many options. There will be more guys coming up and down from the minors because they can't wait for a minor injury to recover from.

The one less pitching change isn't going to save that much time and actually now make the game longer because this is an advantage to the hitters.

I believe the better move is 14 man game day rosters. No exceptions- includes pitching
