Braves 2020 Player Review: A.J. Minter

A.J. Minter played a significant role in an elite bullpen this past season. He put together a stellar 1.2 bWAR in a COVID shortened season. Minter placed himself in a top tier of left handed relievers in 2020 and hopefully will have that continued success. 

A.J. Minter was a highly touted relief prospect when he first debuted in 2017 at the young age of 23. He put together a nice year in 16 games. He seemed to be the closer of the future in 2018 collecting 15 saves in 65 appearances. After dealing with shoulder inflammation to begin 2019, he really seemed to struggle the entire year long.
