Cody Allen Will Close For Angels
6 years agoLos Angeles Angels relief pitcher Cody Allen will be the team's closer in 2019, according to general manager Billy Eppler. “He has a history of pitching in big games and big spots," Eppler said. Allen was recently signed to a one-year deal after a disappointing 4.70 ERA and 1.36 WHIP in 2018, although he did save 27 games and struck out 10.7 hitters per nine innings. The right-hander's value is a bit down after struggling last season, but he could easily bounce back after reaching at least 30 saves in the previous three seasons.
