By Opening Day the Los Angeles Angels had decided on Cam Bedrosian to be their closer. Bedrosian seemed to have owned the role after a solid Spring coupled with his break out 2016 campaign. Huston Street began the year on the disabled list while Andrew Bailey spent one week on the roster before hitting the DL himself.
Bedrosian assumed the responsibility, however after accumulating three saves in the first three weeks he himself hit the DL for two months, leaving the Angels in a pickle.
The bullpen should’ve been shattered, but instead an unlikely group of arms stepped up.
