Not so much as he didn’t give her the votes she needed. I agree, people like Julian Castro or Eric Garcetti would likely have netted her plenty of votes in Arizona and Florida. But really, Raul Grijalva would have done at least as much, if not more to actually mobilize the Hispanic vote in Arizona - while appealing to many supporters of Sanders. In Florida, however, it wouldn’t win her nearly as many votes as picking an actual Cuban-American, which wasn’t really an option for her, so I can’t see it winning her the state. Meanwhile, Anthony Foxx could have helped win the black vote in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin, and especially North Carolina, Georgia, and Florida.
Warren or Sanders, meanwhile, would have signaled to college-aged voters in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Iowa that she was seriously committed to the left. A veep like Grijalva doing rallies with her and Sanders throughout the Midwest, Arizona, and Florida, would have cemented her positions in these places.
