The six-time All-Star shook his head.
“It was a bad thing, but it is a direct consequence of the money,” said Schilling. “(Pittsburgh Pirates Pitcher) Paul Skenes gets almost $ 10 million to report to the university. Teams will not spend that kind of money without their boys reaching the big competitions. So they are on pitch counts in the small competitions, and they will eventually go in the big competitions in the first time, and you can’t ask boys for the first time.
“I get a bit of a small sour reflux every time I see a pitcher walking from the hill in the sixth inning, his cap turns over. But the game has changed.”
MLB managers have routine pitchers out of ball games when they start sniffing 100 throws during games, regardless of whether the player has a no-hitter or shutout intact.

One of the most famous examples in the recent memory came during the World Series 2018 when Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts Starter Rich Hill in the seventh inning during Game 4 relieved the Boston Red Sox.
Hill lasted 6.1 innings, allowing only one earned run and one hit. He had thrown 91 throws and Los Angeles gave a 4-0 lead at that time. The bullpen of the Dodgers then imploded and the team eventually lost the competition 9-6.
The movement led to a response from President Donald Trump and called Roberts’ a ‘big mistake’. Hill responded by saying The president’s focus should not have been at stake.
