If the Cincinnati Reds fail to re-sign Emilio Pagán, they could be in the market for a closer later this winter. Pagán will become a free agent once the World Series ends, and while some Reds fans assume that Tony Santillan or another one of Cincinnati's young relievers can just step into that high-leverage role, the job of a closer is a different animal altogether.
Former Reds General Manager Jim Bowden, who's now a columnist for The Athletic (subscription required), surmised that a reunion with Raisel Iglesias could be a possibility if Cincinnati is unable to retain Pagán this offseason.
