If the Dodgers rotation looks like it will side with the liberals, the bullpen could lean distinctively conservative.
The Dodgers are scheduled to start four left-handers in their rotation in 2015 – Clayton Kershaw, Scott Kazmir, Brett Anderson and either Hyun-Jin Ryu or Alex Wood.
And if teams are stacking lineups with right-handed hitters to face this throng of left-handed starting pitchers, it only figures the Dodgers will typically first go to a right-hander out of the bullpen.
A bullpen full of right-handers is nothing new for the Dodgers.
