Boston Red Sox Bullpen: Breakdown of a quietly solid group
The Boston Red Sox bullpen was expected to be a major flaw of the team in 2019, but the group quietly put together a solid campaign.
Entering the 2018 season, many expected the Boston Red Sox bullpen to be abysmal. However, the numbers show that was not the case. The group quietly was a strength of the team.
Before the season, most expected the Red Sox to have two reliable relievers, Matt Barnes and Ryan Brasier. Brasier struggled but the bullpen was still solid. Brandon Workman, Josh Taylor, Darwinzon Hernandez, and Marcus Walden all had breakout seasons, giving the Red Sox a solid core of five different relievers.
