The New York Mets have the worst bullpen in the majors over the last 30 days with a 5.69 FIP and 8.2 K-BB%. Syndergaard is starting tonight, but he is making just his second start off the DL and in a tough spot at Yankee Stadium. The Indians have the second worst bullpen by FIP over the last month (5.21). However, their 15.5 K-BB% over that span is above average, they're staring the top pitcher on the board tonight and recently added two top bullpen pieces in Hand and Cimber. The Tigers (5.03 FIP, 7.3 K-BB%) and Royals (5.02 FIP, 2.5 K-BB%) are the other two terrible pens over the last month. Matt Body has been getting hammered despite striking out a quarter of batters faced over the last month. He's failed to complete five innings in three of his last five starts. Danny Duffy has been pitching well and regularly completing six to seven innings in most recent starts. Sam Gaviglio, Robbie Ray, Martin Perez, and Rich Hill have all averaged fewer than five innings per start. Gaviglio may be by design. The Jays have a 4.11 FIP, but 17.7 K-BB% out of the pen over the last month. Ray has a poor bullpen behind him (4.52 FIP, 10.6 K-BB%). The Rangers have the top bullpen FIP in the majors over the last 30 days (2.82) with a 16.1 K-BB%, but Perez has one of the toughest matchups (Indians) in the worst park (Texas). Hill is generally limited in his pitch count, having exceeded 100 just once this year despite seven innings in his most recent start. The Dodger pen has a 4.40 FIP over the last month, but with a 19.5 K-BB% that''s third best.
