Amid a wonderful month of ball, the bullpen has been asked to do very little. They're still important. How good are they?
As the Cleveland Indians ripped off 14 wins in a row to seize firm control of the AL Central and set a club record, one thing fans weren’t really shown was a large sample of the bullpen. Until the very last game that is, which is fitting that they finally got a chance to chip in and it was a starter, not one of the relievers, that gave the Tribe that victory.
The next day Corey Kluber lasted into the fourth and the Indians were shellacked.
