Rays To Be Aggressive With Bullpen Stable
4 years agoTampa Bay Rays manager Kevin Cash said the team will "get aggressive" with their bullpen stable of arms in Game 6 of the World Series against the Dodgers on Tuesday. "If we can somehow get a lead and limit them, we've got some of the big guys in the back end of the bullpen that are ready to go. … I know that's our strategy, to get a lead then to get aggressive where we feel like we can limit whatever offense is out there," Cash said. Tampa hopes to give the Dodgers as many different looks as possible as they look to stave off elimination in Game 6. After starter Blake Snell leaves on Tuesday, relievers Diego Castillo, Pete Fairbanks and Nick Anderson are their top three high-leverage arms. Castillo has been the most dependable in the playoffs with a 1.64 ERA and 1.27 WHIP with 12 strikeouts in 11 innings.
