For the longest time, no one seemed to tire of pointing out how reliever Vinnie Pestano was all the Cleveland organization needed to set starting pitcher Mike Clevinger from the Los Angeles Angels.
Pestano was effective in relief for a Los Angeles team that won the AL West and finished with the best record in the American League in 2014. He appeared in 12 regular seasons for the Angels, recording a 0.93 ERA in 9.2 innings of relief. The Angels were swept in three games by the Kansas City Royals in the ALDS, but Pestano did his part, making three scoreless appearances.
