There's a nice thought concept by Sky over at Beyond the Boxscore, laying out a system for asking what level of Leverage Index relief pitchers "deserve." It provides a nice framework for evaluating bullpen usage, though I'd be careful to use established levels of performance instead of stats based on one season (or less).
Dave was called a "national treasure" by Rob Neyer. Seriously. Comments about this article can be sent to him through the miracle of e-mail.
