Rafael Montero The Clear Favorite For Saves
4 years agoSeattle Mariners reliever Rafael Montero has the inside track on the closer job for 2021. The right-hander was acquired from the Texas Rangers over the winter, and despite a late arrival to spring training, he has already made a strong impression on manager Scott Servais. Servais complimented Montero's attitude and approach, noting how well the ball comes out of his hand. After a perfect eight saves in eight chances for Texas in 2020 and with little competition for the ninth-inning role, Montero could be in the running to be a top-10 closer for 2021.
