Bullpen Blues

My 2003 Chicago Cubs are 0-10 thanks to my awful bullpen. My 6 relievers and no of them have an ERA of below 6.00. They are rated from 3 stars to 5 stars. What do I do to win a damn game with this team? My starters are good but the pen has let me down.

Is it an online league? It would help to see the players.

Sometimes when my pen is acting like crap I just take all relievers from their assignments and let the CPU use them as it sees best. Sometimes that helps.

Otherwise...swap out the three star guys with other guys around the same talent level and see if that helps.

Sometimes players underachieve compared to their ratings.
