The Guardians Bullpen Continues On Its Shutout Run

Guardians’ Pen Continues Its Run

That’s quite an impressive run.

Performances by relievers such as Emmanuel Clase, Trevor Stephan, and James Karinchak have contributed to this dominant run.

This is what could end up being the strength of the Guardians by the time the postseason comes around, should they qualify.

While starting pitching is usually the foundation of a team in October, a good bullpen is just as important.

This is a bullpen that can give you multiple innings if a starter doesn’t have his best outing on a certain day.

The big three at the back end of the pen, Stephan, Karinchak, and Clase make it a daunting task to come back against the Guardians late in games.

Their dominance was on full display in last night’s game as they continued the Guardians’ impressive bullpen run.

The pen could ultimately be what carries the team into the postseason.

If they continue their dominance, facing the back end of their pen in the playoffs will prove to be a tall order.
