With Manuel Andres back in the bullpen thanks to the promotion of starting prospect Marvin Winston, Mad Popes fans will once again be treated with one of the top relief crews in all of the Brewster.
"The band is back together," bullpen veteran Marco Vitalle. "Just get us the ball with a lead, and we'll do the rest."
Sacramento's bullpen was asked to provide double duty this season. The aforementioned Andres, free agent signee Mark Perkins, and trade acquisition Tony Alomar were all used and, in regards to Perkins and Alomar, continue to be used as starters this season, despite profiling better as relief pitchers.
The Popes utilized a bare six man bullpen to much success in 2043 and may look to do the same in 2045, and, with all but Alomar under contract for next season, the Popes can take comfort in the following bullpen available to them next summer:
Locks --
ST Marco Vitalle
ST Manuel Cruz
MR Manuel Andres
MR Angel Diaz
MR Jose Zamora
Possibilities --
Mark Perkins (if not needed as a starter)
Tony Alomar (The Popes are looking to resign the wily veteran as his demand in trade has resulted in zero interest. He may also stay in the starting rotation due to his amazing success this season)
A smattering of ambitious prospects...
"All our guys (in the bullpen) can go several innings, when needed," Shoeless said. "It's a great luxury to have and a key piece our Right WindTM philosophy."

Life is a bit more beautiful when time is measured by the half inning rather than the half hour.
