Yankees: Unexpected bullpen woes continue to hamstring Bombers
The Yankees continue to struggle and surprisingly, the bullpen has been a big reason why.
This should not be happening. The Yankees are supposed to have one of the best bullpens in baseball. But, lately, the relievers haven’t been consistent, which has many fans scratching their heads. What gives?
Sure, closer Aroldis Chapman is on the shelf. But Aaron Boone still has a crew of capable arms that includes Chad Green, Dellin Betances, Zach Britton, and others. Betances blew a lead in the 3-2 loss to the Blue Jays on Sunday, which was the latest misstep in a string of disappointing performances by the bullpen.
