It's just so hard to imagine the concept of the pen actually getting nine in a row out.

 

I don't care if they get 9 in a row, just so long as they don't blow the lead.

 

Or give me a coronary cause they get so close to blowing the lead.

 

What is the pen's WHIP?

 

I don't have the numbers in front of me, and I don't quite feel like calculating it (since I'd have to look back at retrosheet in order to exclude Gooz's starts)... sorry.

Just for fun, though, I did decide to look up the WXRL for all the clubs.

 

Cubs rank 29th... ironically, the only pen in the league that's been worse (in terms of when they decide to screw up just so much as how often they do) is the powerhouse bullpen put together by that baseball genius Wayne Krivsky in Cinci. But that bullpen has been about twice as bad as ours.
