Rays post openings for their bullpen

Each year it seems that all 30 major league teams are looking to revamp their bullpen in one way or another. A team may be looking for a closer to put them in the playoffs or a lefty specialist to get out a tough left-handed hitter in a crucial situation or a rubber armed pitcher who can go multiple innings if a starter blows up. This isn’t too difficult as relievers tend to be an itinerant lot moving from team to team. Such a pitcher is Burke Bradenhop who, despite excellent stats, has played for four teams in four years and is once again looking for work in February.
