Regular work has Matt Bush feeling like Rangers’ closer

When a team is winning, everyone seems to get in on the action.

During their recent 10-game winning streak, the Texas Rangers saw contributions in some shape or form from all 25 players on the roster, even long man Austin Bibens-Dirkx.

But an argument can be made that the player whose contributions were the most important to the Rangers going forward came from Matt Bush, who was moved into the closer’s role last month only to not have much to close.

A closer who doesn’t pitch often can be a closer who is ineffective when he does finally get a chance in the ninth inning with a game on the line.
