The bullpen has blown 8 saves

Osuna (3), Biagini (2), Grilli (1) account for 6 of them.

Those three were going to be the back end of the bullpen no matter what, and I don't think spending more money would have changed that. Especially with Osuna and Biagini. Can't really blame Rogers/Shatkins for these guys, who were very reliable last season, for not doing their jobs well enough when past history has shown them to be quite reliable.

They hang onto close out 4 of those and this team is just 13-15 with terrible hitting and two injured starters so far this season.
