Diamondbacks right-hander Archie Bradley has enjoyed his time in the closer’s role over the past two months. He expects to remain in it heading into next year.
“It’s exciting to come every day knowing that if I play,” he said, “I’m either going to win or lose the game, essentially.”
His season has been a wild ride. Midway through the year, his results were so bad he said he would not have been surprised if he were sent down.
“I deserved it,” he said.
