The group game up a total of 12 earned runs in just over 23 inningspitched. Despite that stat, the Rays advanced to the ALCS where it'shard to fathom that the group, which had the sixth best ERA during theentire 2008 regular season will struggle that much again.

If the Rays can get to the bullpen with the lead, they could be a hard team to beat.

Aside from a late hiccup in Game 4 of the ALDS, the bullpen has beenas good as expected with Jonathan Papelbon striking out seven hittersin five innings pitched. Justin Masterson and Hideki Okajima are morethan capable in late and close game situations.公仔箱論壇$ h2 ?9 W9 C& z7 T- Y
