For being only 60 games, and 19 appearances, in length, Cole Sulser’s 2020 season seemed to go a multitude of directions.
At times, Sulser looked like a real find for the Orioles, a pitcher who was hard to hit with a knack for high-leverage and closing situations. And then, at others, Sulser looked like the latest below-average reliever being trotted out by a bad team, walking batters left and right and coughing up one lead after another.
The results were dim. Sulser went 1-5 with a 5.56 ERA, and three blown saves in eight opportunities. But as the team gets the first workouts of the 2021 season underway in Sarasota, Sulser is still with the club, still looking to be an asset.
