from cardinals fans:

As hard as it has been for the Cardinal team doctors and training staff recently, the organization has done a great job of putting a team on the field to compete. The bullpen has born the brunt of the scrutiny. It is easy for us, as fans to make excuses for the lack of offense due to the staggering number of injuries. A closer look at the bullpen highlights some glaring deficiencies. In April, the relievers walked an average of 1.75 per nine innings. In May that jumped to an average of 4.57 per nine. The April average of 8.74 base runners per nine innings spiraled to 14.37 in May. An efficient strikeout/walk ratio of 4.91 in April dwindled to 1.57 in May. The number of pitches per inning increased by three in the month of May as well. This is not a stat I want to see. The fewer number of pitches the bullpen has to throw the better. The fact that the bullpen is so compromised requires the club to leave relievers on the mound for longer periods of time, which hardly ever works out well.
The Cardinals need to throw more strikes. They have to get back to being more efficient. Hopefully the injury bug will pack up and head out of town and Jaime Garcia is healthy or the rotation may face yet another setback. The bullpen has been dinged and bloodied.
