They should really have at least 48 wins now, and it's the bullpen that's hurt them the most.

They also have 17 wins, good for 7th best in the AL. The bullpen has 2 net losses.
All I'm saying is the raw numbers are not as bad as everything thinks. I still consider Ws and Ls for the bullpen to have a large luck component to it - so much matters when the starter exits and how well batting is late in the game. Blue Jays have a 0.615 OPS in "close & late" situations. Is there no blame to be laid on the hitters for not getting it done later in games too?
Giving them 5 more wins with a better bullpen is extreme - they probably should have 2-3 more wins based on luck alone and that's fine in my eyes.
