relievers shouldn't get the bonus because of "less looks". they get the bonus because they are tuned to go 1-2 innings instead of 6-8 so they throw harder.
The question shouldn't be if there's a penalty for the pitcher, but rather a bonus for the batter if he's seen the pitcher 4 times in a game. Which I don't believe there is until someone provides a lot of data and is able to quantify what that bonus should be
