The Red Sox's bullpen scares me. Is there any chance they will be able to pick up an effective relief pitcher for the stretch run?
-- Jeff T., Delmar, N.Y.
President of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski has a little more than two weeks left to find another reliever who can slip through waivers. Given the record the Red Sox have, every other American League team can place a waiver claim before Boston has a chance. This makes it difficult, but not impossible. It is probably more realistic for the Red Sox to shore up the bullpen they have, and adding a starter or two to that mix come playoff time could help also.
