It sort of makes sense for Anaheim. Richards, Shoemaker, Heaney and Skaggs are coming off injuries and Ohtani never threw more than 160 IP in NPB. With the DH, AL clubs don't need as deep a bench for PHs and Ohtani can play that role on his off days.
Other than that unique case, I'll update Earl Weaver's old truism "It is easier to findfour five starting pitchers than five six".

I just keep assuming injuries will bring these 6 man rotations back to earth (5).

I guess making SPs less susceptible to injury is part of the case in favor of six-man rotations but I don't think guys like Garrett Richards are a fair test of that hypothesis.
It'll probably be more of a challenge to manage a bullpen, especially since none of the six are ever going to be mistaken for John Clarkson. I suppose there's the possibility of a starter pitching an inning on his throwing day between starts but that's kind of defeating the purpose.
