Fortified by the recent acquisition of Jeurys Familia from the Mets, the Oakland relief corps thrived at Globe Life Park in Arlington and Coors Field, posting a 1.42 ERA and 29 strikeouts in 25 1/3 innings to earn MLB Bullpen of the Week presented by The Hartford for July 23-29.
As part of The Hartford Prevailing Moments program, each Monday throughout the 2018 season, MLB.com is honoring the MLB Bullpen of the Week presented by The Hartford. An industry-wide panel of MLB experts, including legendary stats guru Bill James, constructed a metric based on James' widely renowned game-score formula, to provide a weekly measurement of team-bullpen performance.
