This isn't a real Game Thread, just a belated look back at the bullpen as it was 2 weeks ago. We will catch up on Friday. We won't talk about what happened this afternoon.
Without further ado, here's the bullpen chart for the period June 24-July 7:

The bullpen was fairly effective over this 2 week period. Most notable was Scott Schoeneweis who appeared 7 times and performed well each time. Jason Frasor also quietly put in a workmanlike effort. All of the relievers, save for Schoeneweis, had at least one longer stint (at least 7 batters) over the period.
The bullpen has had a rough time of it over the last 9 days since the period covered by this report. We will see if we can identify some possible causes next time.
