Looks like we don't really have a current thread about the Sox bullpen, so I've figured that I'd start one. I'm not sure if this is an indictment on the rotation or a praise of the pen but the only pitchers with an ERA+ above 100 with at least 15 innings pitched on the Sox are Koji (230 ERA+ in 15 IP), Tazawa (20 IP), Ogando (140 ERA+ in 18 1/3 IP), Breslow (116 ERA+ in 20 1/3 IP), and Wright (111 ERA+ in 22 IP).
They've been a godsend and so far they've performed at probably their best case scenario. Can we expect this to continue?
Ian York has also posted an article to sonsofsamhorn.com looking at just how incredibly valuable Tazawa has been recently:
