Angels fans can rest a little easier now that the bullpen seems to be taking more shape with the recent moves that Angels general manager Perry Minasian has made. He cleaned house during the offseason as he changed virtually the team’s entire bullpen from last season.

As replacements, he made moves for Raisel Iglesias to be their primary closer, left-handed specialist Alex Claudio, Aaron Slegers who was traded from the Tampa Bay Rays, and then adding top-pitching prospect Chris Rodriguez with his electric fastball.
