Despite pitching half a season with the Padres, Trevor Rosenthal is a finalist for the Trevor Hoffman NL Reliever of the Year Award. Who is he up against?

Arguably the most impactful addition at the trade deadline, Trevor Rosenthal was a much-needed addition to the back end of the Padres bullpen. Kirby Yates was lost for the season after a few outings, and several players failed to live up to their expectations. Once Rosenthal was acquired from the Royals, he had a calming effect on everyone in the bullpen.
