Question 1979 Cubs use only one reliever

This is wierd. The 1979 Cubs used only Bruce Sutter as a reliever. Only used 7 total pitchers all year(Willie Hernandez was used for only 9IP)

They went 92-70. Here's Sutter's line:

13-7, 1.15 ERA 77G(all in relief), 172.2 IP 0.93WHIP 8.13 K/9

I've never seen this before. Anyone else? They had tons of pitchers on the reserve roster.
