when is the last time the cubs bullpen has been good

i submit: 2015 justin grimm hector rondon pedro strop travis wood and somehow the only good 17 innings of trevor cahill's career

remember when the cubs would just pull guys off the scrap heap and they'd be shutdown relievers for no good reason

It's amazing what they can do with computers these days.

2016 was pretty good once they had Chapman. Carl Edwards Jr. hadn’t fallen apart yet, Rendon was occasionally good, and Travis Wood was decent for long relief.

Rondon and strop were both good in '16 until they got hurt at the end of the season and were useless in the playoffs, but the Cubs' rotation was insane that year.

Today's a contest between Kyle Wright's willingness to let the Mets score vs. the Mets unwillingness to actually do so.

Nope. Somebody in the Mets organization apparently doesn't think he's in danger, but nothing has been released as a statement.

They were saying he was on a short leash and was only scheduled to pitch 3 innings. Not sure the reason.

gently caress. Really wanted to see him get that last K.

10K in 3.2IP of relief, with the one non-K out being a pickoff after hitting the guy.

Final Line: 3.2IP 10K 1BB 1HBP, 55P.

Goes well with the hitting also being Very Bad. Really just in general they've been bad
