Is the Los Angeles Dodgers bullpen good?
There probably has not been a more polarizing question amongst over the past four or five seasons than this. Despite the fact that the team’s bullpen has the fourth-best ERA in baseball since 2015, it seems like the Dodgers’ relief pitchers are always a sore spot in the minds of fans.
And, well, it’s safe to say 2019 doesn’t figure to be any different.
Thus far, the Dodgers are 8-6. At least four of those losses have been credited to the bullpen. Of those games, three belong to newcomer Joe Kelly, who has been an unmitigated disaster from the start.
