Raisel Iglesias and the Cincinnati Reds closer’s role in 2020

The media could not be loaded, either because the server or network failed or because the format is not supported.

It was, what, 15 months ago that the Cincinnati Reds and David Bell were talking about using Raisel Iglesias in a non-traditional role for a closer. The talk was that rather than a traditional role as a closer, he would be used more like that of a “fireman”, brought in to face the heart of the order if it was before the 9th inning, or brought in in specific situations with the game on the line even if it wasn’t the final inning.
