They do seem to "match" whatever the other team is doing a lot, like yesterday they scored 10+ when the Yanks score 10+ but then they lose games 2-1, 4-3, etc. I don't have any stats to back this up, just seems to be happening a lot.

The bullpen is a major issue. Also, even though the offense is producing I really think the lack of a huge offensive threat in the middle of the lineup hurts them.
It may only make a small difference on the surface, but when games are being lost in clutch situations and by small margins it hurts.
It has an impact on the pitching because it would take a lot of pressure off them.
Crapelbon sucks.
