Marc Rzepcynski is a lefty specialist who sometimes also pitches to right-handed batters. I know, I know. Stay with me here. He is also...not as great as he once was at the one thing he is paid handsomely to do. Yeah, I know. I’m mad, too.
Grant Bronsdon wrote the 40 in 40 for Rzepczynski (it’s that second ‘z’ that will fuck you up every time) last year and he pointed out a few things I’d like to comment on and update. Grant noted that, even last year, it wasn’t unheard of for a reliever to paid $5.
