Today, unlike other times, only fresh pitcher available. Anderson and Chacín to blame on this one. Jeffress hasn't thrown since the 22nd. Hader wasn't going to be used, but also hasn't thrown since the 22nd. Claudio was not the only fresh pitcher. Albers threw 1 inning yesterday. All pitchers were off Thursday, and Monday. It is possible for relievers to pitch on back to back days.
