What are the Atlanta Braves doing?
One answer is quite obvious: they have struck early and often in this off-season and assembled the best bullpen in the National League… arguably the best in all of baseball. First Will Smith. Now Chris Martin.
Now you do have to actually win games for a bullpen to be effective, but imagine this…
- You’re a free agent hitter or pitcher out there.
- You want to be on a ‘winning’ team
- You know – just like everybody else – that lockdown bullpens are important, especially in the post-season.
