Alex Reyes Expected To Be Cardinals' Primary Closer
4 years agoSt. Louis Cardinals relief pitcher Alex Reyes is expected to open the year as the team's closer according to Cardinals beat writer Derrick Goold. Goold said that, "Even if they don't call him closer. He'll be the reliever they're going to call on to finish games." This take from Goold is a bit surprising as Jordan Hicks and Giovanny Gallegos have been widely considered the favorites to close games for the Cardinals. It might be a fluid situation at the start of the year and even throughout the year, but anyone in need of saves from the waiver wire, Reyes is a top option to consider.
