Rod Carews Birthday Verified Member Posted March 19, 2024 Posted March 19, 2024 In the short term, assuming both Thielbar and Duran are back on the field without major setbacks, the bullpen will get stretched a little in terms of high leverage arms, but I think they will survive. Some of those lower leverage guys will need to get pushed a little bit. In the longer term, it may (oddly) be a positive development. A few less miles on Duran and Thielbar come September and beyond might be good for their effectiveness going forward as well as some development of the other guys in the pen.
