6th inning guys are what you hope your young arms can be as they debut. Shouldn’t have to pay FA dollars on that role.

Neris is proven as a late inning reliever. 89 career saves, 33 of 34 in holds and saves last season. 208 IP over the last 3 seasons.

If Mo allowed me one signing, it would be Neris at 3/30mil. We could cover closer with Helsley and GG. A shared 9th inning role may benefit all. Someone besides JoJo, to carry the load in the 8th, gives JoJo a safety net.
