That's what I was thinking. Worst ever is hilarious. I'm pretty sure the 2003 pen looked WAYYYY uglier on paper. I don't know. At least going into the season you had Cruz (one of the best young arms in the game at the time), Farnsworth (was awesome in 2001, so at least there was hope), Remlinger (a pretty big free agent signing) and Guthrie. This bullpen features a guy who walked too many and struck too few out in AA last year, a Rule V pick and Rodrigo Lopez. Plus Russell isn't exactly lights out against righties. I'm not too concerned, given how volatile bullpens are in general, but on paper it looks really bad. However, by the middle of the year, I fully expect guys like Beliveau and Parker up. Ahhh yes, comparing the best guys in the 2003 pen to the worst guys in the 2012.
