The bullpen was a weak link for the Dominican Summer League
Cardinals. In the first month of the
season the club collected an overall ERA of 4.07 and turned only three of seven
save opportunities. Junior Gonzalez,
Juan Alvarez, Ronald Medrano, and Estarlin Arias all were used in a tandem
fashion and would later be moved into the rotation. Will Changarotty had a solid first month
striking out 13 and walking five over 13.2 innings. Diego Cordero had a strong month in keeping
the runs down. Enrique Perez had a
really good month but his walks allowed almost equalled his strike out
count. Unfortunely relievers Fabian
Blanco, Cristhian Lugo, Luis Rosales, and Edwar Ramirez struggled hard to get
going.

In the second month of the season, the club saw their ERA
balloon to 5 and convert three of ten save opportunities. Estailin Tejada took over as front man for
the bullpen, leading in strikeouts and ERA (as a constant member). Changarotty continued his solid run, but saw
his strikeouts drop below his walks allowed.
Rosales turned things around compared to his first month, but still had
out walked his strikeouts. Blanco,
Ramirez, and Lugo stayed on the same road from the beginning of the season
while Perez and Cordero took a big hit.
Frendy Gavin missed a majority of the month with an injury. We also see newly signed international free
agents Anthony Trompiz, Noel DeJeus, and Brian Pirela make their debuts a few
days after inking deals.

Changarotty made a complete move from the bullpen into the
rotation. Perez bounced back from a
so-so month to lead the team in strikeouts and dropped his walks. After struggling all season long, Ramirez,
Blanco, and Lugo stabilized and had strong months. Tejada and Rosales has small hiccups but
still were valuable to the team. Gavin
returned late and was released while Angel Estevez returned from a season long
injury.

As we look at how the relievers handled inherited runners,
Tejada was probably one of the better pitchers.
Gavin, Cordero, DeJesus, Rosales, Changarotty, and Perez only took on a
small amount with good results. Lugo,
Blanco, and Ramirez could not keep the runners on base.

Looking at the two top arms out of the bullpen, the award
for 2015 Dominican Summer League Cardinals Reliever of the Year could go either
way. The one thing that sticks out is
Perez logging ten plus more innings than Tejada. Perez has some struggles at the beginning of
the season when it came to strikeouts and walks ratio but turned it around in
the end. Tejada earned more saves but
Perez picked up more holds in the middle innings. Tejada also doubled Perez’s hit total and we
can only wonder if with a few more innings would his runs, walks, and strikeout
totals jump. I have chosen Perez for his
more prominent role in the bullpen with the club throughout season.
Congratulations to Enrique Perez on earning the 2015
Dominican Summer League Cardinals Reliever of the Year award.
