Entering Monday, the Marlins have MLB’s second-best bullpen in terms of win probability added. None of their relievers has blown a save yet this season. However, the group is merely average in terms of ERA (3.77) and 25th out of 30 in fielder independent pitching (4.56). Can they keep it up without striking out more opposing batters?
