The Cincinnati Reds bullpen has been about as bad as one could expect. On the season the bullpen has an ERA of 5.53. Tejay Antone has been the only reliable guy out of the bullpen from the start of the year, with everyone else either being downright bad or inconsistent. Last week when the Reds placed Antone on the injured list there was, understandably, a large sigh coming from Cincinnati that rivaled the sound of Krakatoa erupting in 1883.
In a shocking turn of events the bullpen has been outstanding without Tejay Antone. The Reds have played in six games since the team placed Antone on the injured list.
