i think only one of those years he pitched he got to ~500ab. and that was part time starter too..

if you can't do both it'll be a burden for sure. not jsut about ruth but nowadays too...

need a 6th starter every once in a while on your active roster constantly. playing baseball isn't that hard on you.. it's a whole lot of standing around, lol. (excludes catcher). if they can't do it they are "fat" or something else of their own accord. maybe don't drink till 5am and your nose in the booger sugar or worse.

pitchers have to do something ~100+ times that the human body wasn't naturally made to do.. .throw a ball 95mph, lol. much different than a fielder. OF might not be optimal for that situation as they have to gun it the next day on occassion and during the healing process.

(just liek working out.. you let the muscles heal and thats when you get stronger.. if you don't you actualy get weaker.. that's why you need days between lifting weights or you will damage yourself in the long-term.. basically just be a ball of unhealed scar tissue with no strength because it simply tears too easily)

taear it the right amount...let it heal, re-tear.. = stronger muscles. "good" scar tissue is good muscle.
