The Bullpen (Cora: "People Think We're Short On Pitching. We're Not.")

With Opening Day four days away, manager Alex Cora has decided who will fill the final three spots in the Red Sox's bullpen: Brandon Workman, Hector Velazquez, and Colten Brewer.

The other members of the eight-man pen are: Matt Barnes, Ryan Brasier, Heath Hembree, Tyler Thornburg, and Brian Johnson.

The Red Sox sent Marcus Walden and Bobby Poyner to Pawtucket and Darwinzon Hernandez to Portland. Cora says Hernandez, ranked as Boston's #4 prospect by MLB Pipeline, likely will be with the big club at some point this summer..

He made it tough on us.
