Yeah. I'm actually surprised that it hasn't become a Player's Union issue, since it deprives starters of even a chance at a win (given the five-inning minimum), and wins, while less meaningful than they once were, still come into play when awards and new contracts come around.
I do think MLB is going to look at ways to mitigate bullpen use. Wouldn't do much for the playoffs since the off days allow for using a short pen but maybe they will limit how many guys you can have in the pen. Most teams carry and 8 man bullpen now. Maybe it should be 6.
