Yeah, they had a very great bullpen last season and leads the league in most stats in the bullpen catorgy. But, they did lose Bradford which is a huge lose but didn't lose Sanchez, he'll be back this season which is great. And yeah, they might have lose Bradford but replaced him with a great pitcher in Ambiorix Burgos who was the closer for the Royals last season. It'll be close but I think this years is better because it's much more stocked.

Oh, yeah, he is. Totally forget about that.

Scott Schoeneweis, Pedro Feliciano, and some others will have to step it up until he comes back because I believe he's a key role in this years bullpen.
