Is Jairo Diaz the key to the 2020 Colorado Rockies’ bullpen?

We’ve already discussed Garrett Hampson (here) and Sam Hilliard (here) and today we will look at one of the Colorado Rockies‘ biggest weaknesses last season (the bullpen) and the player who could be the key to turning it around — Jairo Diaz.

For as inconsistent as Diaz has been throughout his career, he has been twice as resilient. He battled back from injury and, most recently, the passing of his wife to post a career year in 2019, finishing the year as the club’s closer in the absence of Scott Oberg.
