Over the weekend the Tampa Bay Rays made headlines around the league because they opted to start relief pitcher Sergio Romo versus the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim rather than use a traditional starting pitcher, twice.

A strategy can be useful and lame at the same time. Starting a reliever for one inning is an example of this, at least for me. I like watching starting pitchers more than relievers.
