Royals have the best bullpen in MLB

[j$]

K-City has 4 relievers in there bullpen with a 0 era. Take note people Im glad I played them tonight. Soria is unbelievable. Royals are for real if this bullpen continues.

Still pretty early but the Royals are looking good. I good a good look at them Monday and I like this team. Particularily their front end starting pitching, their bullpen and Billy Butler and Alex Gordon.
This is a team headed up for sure.
Unfortunately I am betting against them tomorrow night because I think Tomko is a horrible pitcher who is waaay overachieving. This being early baseball season he could throw a no hitter LOL

Yea the Royals surprised me tonight but won't anymore. If the bullpen holds together they could be the surprise team of baseball this year.

How can they win with no hitting?

Interesting, if the only criteria you used was ERA of relief pitching and you bet say the top 5 times in that category you would be up quite a bit this year so far.

I guess LT is right, if you do nothing else but handicap bullpens you will be a winner.

Actually my system doesn't kick in until May 1. KC does look promising though, as their bullpen did well after the All-Star break last year too.

And curious, the rule is bet top 10 when not playing against another top 10, never laying -130 or more.

is there a site you use that has a constantly updated list from day-day for each teams bullpen's ERA, or is it your own record keeping? and if so ,how many factors/variables/columns are the stats broken into?

ESPN has a filter for "as reliever" on the team pitching stats page.

Thanks for the info LT. I wasn't sure how your system worked.

I just pull the pen ERAs from covers.
