It was just a year ago when we were looking at Blake Treinen as perhaps the best reliever in baseball. Now, I will argue that we are too quick to anoint The Next Great Reliever after just one year. Yes, relievers are more unpredictable than any other position, but you still need more than one year to really prove it. That being said, the stuff is undeniable with Treinen, and even in a down year like 2019 his stuff didn’t really take a step back. Rather, it was his command. There’s no guarantee of the latter coming back, but I’d rather bet on that guy than someone who lost his stuff but not command.
