Players On The Roster In 2023
Heading into 2022 I was deeply skeptical that this unit was good enough to allow the Red Sox to be competitive. The numbers bore out that skepticism all year long leading to a complete overhaul of the bullpen this offseason. Good thing too, because it was without a doubt the team’s most glaring weakness.
The bullpen ranked near the bottom of the league in almost every measure of success. They were 27th in fWAR, 25th in walk rate, 20th in HR/FB rate, 18th in GB rate, and just 15th in strikeout rate.
