Red Sox 5, Angels 10: More bullpen woes

Coming into the season, one of the clear weaknesses for the Red Sox was the lack of top-end talent in their bullpen. There were enough interesting guys on the depth chart that you could feasibly see them piece together the middle innings on a regular basis, but aside from Garrett Whitlock there was no one you could trust every time out in close games. The thing about Whitlock, of course, is that they want him to be a starter, which he was in this game and was phenomenal. But the offense was once again too quiet, and the bullpen blew their fourth save of the year.
