This is our worst season for saves since 2015 (9), and the lowest total I can find going back to at least 1987 (5 - and I don't think the records on thebaseballcube.com are complete).
Good post. The fact not having a closer and having to push some of our best bullpen guys to the starting rotation which moved our weaker bullpen arms into key roles really hurt. The domino effect hurt bad this year.
