DateQuestionAnswer
2020-02-28 13:00:00 (link to chat)Who is a relief pitcher who will become the starting closer this year or next year who has the potential to really break out. I say Munoz. What say you?
(Peter from SD)		Munoz would be my choice. Yates is in the final year of his contract. There has been talk of a possible extension, but if the Padres are looking to sell midseason, I have to imagine Yates will be on the move. However, the acquisition of Pagan clouds matters. Other than Munoz, and the aforementioned Karinchak or Clase (Hand also is in the last year of guarantees with a 2021 club option), I like Ty Buttrey. Hansel Robles is in the final year of his contract and the Angels are far from a lock to be competitive despite the Anthony Rendon signing. Also, do not forget about Jordan Hicks who may return late in the year from TJS. (Jesse Roche)
2014-09-03 14:00:00 (link to chat)Jordan, thanks for the chat. What is your take on Ty Buttrey? What is his ceiling/floor? Thanks!!
(Red Sox Nation from Boston)		The size is nice, but he's got a lot of things working against him. Floor of a back end starter, probably ends up as a reliever. (Jordan Gorosh)
