Um, what? He threw Mario Soto on 3 days rest 19 times a year. That's almost criminal. And he always threw his worst starter in games he didn't bet on and then replaced him with his worst reliever, even when the games were close. Bill gullickson was his go to when he didn't bet on games. He killed Sotos career to make a few extra bucks.

Yeah, that's highly unusual to manage this way. Every game he didnt bet on, it was clear he made the least amount of effort to win. Blatantly. So he can save all his best arms for the games he did bet on.
