The Pittsburgh Pirates Need To Dip Into Their AAA Bullpen Depth

Right now, the Pittsburgh Pirates own a record of 16-22. While the team has had plenty of problems so far this season, one of the biggest has been an inconsistent bullpen.

Felipe Rivero, Juan Nicasio, Tony Watson, and Wade LeBlanc have all been excellent for the Pirates. Right-handed reliever Daniel Hudson has been incredibly inconsistent. Meanwhile, the other two bullpen spots have been a revolving door of bleh.

Five other pitchers have spent time in the bullpen for the Pittsburgh Pirates this season. At this moment, the other two bullpen spots belong to Johnny Barbato and Josh Lindblom.
