There are plenty of starters who made good with two pitches (Seaver [mostly], Ryan [totally], deGrom [mostly], and Glavine, among others), but when development staffs are sorting them out in the minors, if you have one or two effective pitches they typically send you to the bullpen, and if you have three or four, they tend let you start.
