SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- New Rockies closer Wade Davis brings a full mix of pitches, a history of success and, most importantly, high expectations.
Davis started a postseason game for the Rays as a rookie in 2010, appeared in two World Series with the Royals -- including when they won the championship in '15 -- and helped the Cubs reach the National League Championship Series last year. The Rockies signed Davis to a three-year, $52 million deal believing he is just the right guy for a team that made the postseason last year for the first time since 2009, but cannot afford to be satisfied.
