How about that Yunior Marte fella, huh?

Let’s clear something up first.

It’s pronounced /JOON-yer/, not /YOON-yer/ Marte. It shouldn’t be that hard to look at Baseball Reference to figure this out, but apparently it is. For your future references in aggrieved complaining about whatever bullpen malady has laid waste, I give you the proper way to say this young man’s name.

All good? Ok, on with the show.

There is always someone in a bullpen for any major league team that is a revelation, an arm they were not counting on to be one of their top options who inevitably forces the manager to use him in high leverage situations.
