The New York Mets have one piece of their late-inning bullpen puzzle figured out, even though they're not yet sure where Devin Williams will ultimately slide in. He might end up being the closer, or he might be the setup man, but in either scenario, the club will be counting on him to excel in high leverage.
That's a gamble. And at three years, $51 million, it's not a cheap one. There are, of course, plenty of things to like about Williams, but there are just as many reasons to be frightened.
Relievers, after all, are the most volatile players in the sport.
