Reds To Experiment With Alternating, Multi-Inning Closers 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Thu Mar 2, 2017 11:59 am

The Cincinnati Reds are set to experiment with alternating, multi-inning closers, something Bryan Price has hinted at since last season.

Raisel Iglesias and Michael Lorenzen, a pair of former starters, could both end up throwing more than 100 innings in numerous high-leverage situations.

"We may set back the clock," said Price of the approach, "and say there are more ways than one to skin a cat."
