I'm currently running the 2018 Cardinals and the bullpen has been atrocious despite individuals having solid ratings. I swear Holland gives up a homer every time he pitches.

Bullpen has been a mixed bag with Weaver, Wacha, and Mikolas pitching well and Wainwright struggling. The big surprise was Carlos Martinez really struggling to start the season but he's starting to turn it around. DeJong sucks at D. Ozuna has been banged up and can't hit for any power whatsoever. Outside of Fowler and Pham the lineup isn't doing much. The only outside help I've brought in so far was snagging Wilmer Flores on waivers but now I'm finding he and Gyorko are kind of redundant. Might look to move one of them for relief help.

Still, the ratings suggest these guys should be better and I'm sitting at 23-24 on May 23. I think once variance starts to swing the other way I'll be making a run at the playoffs.

If I fall short, goodbye Mike Matheny!
