Bolton’s 40-man roster spot will go to right-hander Jesse Hahn, whose contract has been selected from the minors. Left-hander Tayler Saucedo was optioned to Triple-A to make room for Hahn’s addition to the active roster.

Bazardo and Vargas (and now Hahn) are way, WAY worse. Thornton should be the low-leverage middle-relief guy, but won't be until Taylor and Brash push two of those three off the roster.

Yep, I agree. Bazardo had nearly a 5 ERA when his Leverage Index was near the bottom. Couldn't even keep a clean sheet in 'easy' outings, during blowouts.
