Red Sox reliever Brandon Workman is ready to be the closer for 2020

It’s hard to say that I’m excited to see what the Red Sox pitching staff is capable of this season, especially after another abysmal performance today. For all that we know they may be getting all of the kinks out of the way early so they can dominate during the season, at least I hope they are. There is one arm on the staff that I have little to no doubt in and that’s Brandon Workman.

The righty was a revelation for an otherwise embarrassing Red Sox team last season. Whether he was coming in for early relief or assuming the closer role late in the year, he was reliable and automatic.
