Ted,

You realize, of course, that not all "aces" are the same, right? Just because an "ace" of a pitching staff 45 years ago was suited to pitching on short rest doesn't mean that the ace of the Rangers' staff in 2010 also was up to the same task. Just like every clean-up hitter isn't comfortable swinging away at a 3-0 pitch, players are different.

I'll stop now. Don't want to be a contrarian.
