RELIEVERS: An early look at skill sets in six troubled pens
Jan 12 2015
We have crossed the baseball equinox—halfway between the last pitch of the World Series and first pitch of spring training (roughly Dec 29, but who's counting)? It is time for free agents to find homes, and for us to hone our projections and make some lists for use when drafts roll around. This column will examine six bullpens where players may be added or subtracted, playing time battles will be had, and current projections are going to move around as we learn more about the health, roles and signings for these teams. These bullpens are far from settled, but we at least can look at the skills and tuck away some names. Therefore, we cast a wide net, using projections as of January 7, and see if we can find some hidden gems.
