The Mets have used 23 pitchers so far this season. That used to be a high number. In 1989, 23 pitchers used in a season would have been tied for the 9th most used by a team, over a single season, in history. Now it’s a routine number. 13 major league teams have used more than 23 pitchers in 2007. Four teams in history have used more than 30 pitchers in a season, all of these being teams in the last few years. The 2002 Padres remain way ahead of everyone else:
Most pitchers used in a season by a major league team:
2002 Padres: 37 pitchers
2000 Indians: 32 pitchers
2006 Royals: 31 pitchers
2002 Indians: 31 pitchers
