Colorado Rockies GM makes it clear bullpen has to improve in 2019

The Colorado Rockies spent a record amount on their bullpen last offseason, inking Wade Davis as their closer and adding Bryan Shaw as a set-up man. Additionally, Jake McGee was re-signed to provide a solid left-hander in the bullpen. Davis came through many times, posting a franchise-record 43 saves but also recording a 4.13 ERA, by far his highest mark since the 2013 campaign.

Shaw, however, completely imploded, logging a career-high 5.93 ERA and allowing 70 hits in 54.2 innings. He didn’t make Colorado’s postseason roster and was often a target of boos raining down from the Coors Field faithful.
