PT TOMORROW: NL West—April musings

Arizona Diamondbacks

While Arizona's season thus far has been pretty much been a disaster, the bullpen has held its own—relatively. Compared to a 7.23 ERA for the starting rotation, Arizona's bullpen sits at a 3.57 ERA through April 22. Addison Reed's (RHP, ARI) debut with Arizona so far has been mixed. While he's given up four earned runs in his first ten innings (with one blown save), his skills have been on the mark. He has an 11:2 K:BB, but as has been noted earlier this year, the HR ball will likely continue to be an issue for him as he's allowed two already. Reed should have a fairly long leash at closer, but who could line up behind him based on BaseballHQ.com's Bullpen Indicators?
