As is we'd have a bullpen of...
Aaron Sanchez
Brett Cecil
Liam Hendriks
Aaron Loup
Ryan Tepera
Bo Schultz
Pat Venditte
... that's assuming that Osuna moves to the rotation and nobody else is acquired. That's certainly not ideal but there are some interesting hurlers in there. I'm confident in Sanchez and Cecil (as bullpen arms), Hendriks was a revelation last year, Venditte always has the platoon advantage, Loup had his struggles but reduce his role to Loogy and the source of all his struggles last year disappears (namely a spike in power numbers by RH hitters... lefties slugged .362 against him while RH slugged .510. for perspective every RH he faced turned into Jose Bautista and every lefties was Ryan Goins). It shouldn't be hard (or expensive) to find upgrades on Tepera & Schultz.
