With starting pitching again a question mark, the Red Sox will likely lean heavily on their bullpen

Martin was Chaim Bloom's best signing. In 55 appearances last season, he compiled a 1.05 ERA in 51⅓ innings, walking just eight. Martin really caught fire during the summer, when he registered 16 straight scoreless appearances (13⅔ innings) from June 9-July 25. After he allowed one of his two homers surrendered all season July 28 against the Giants, opponents didn't score a run off Martin for the remainder of the season (20 appearances).
