Happy Tuesday, guys!
There’s been a lot of talk about the starting rotation and the options for the Opening Day starting five. There’s a bunch of young, talented arms that the club has invested a lot of capital in, especially in the trade department. And it’s worth the attention that the fans and team have given to them after last season’s tough results from the starting pitchers.
But the starters are only half of the staff, and the relievers last year were arguably just as bad on the whole as the starters. Add in the fact that the club saw closer Trevor May retire at the end of the season, and a bad bullpen has only gotten worse this offseason, at least on paper.
