Last year, the Astros traded for a player recognized as one of the top young closers in all of baseball. They also traded for a reliever with an ERA over 3.81 for his career up to that year and had posted a 3.40 ERA that season. Shockingkly, it could easily be argued that the reliever with a career ERA near 4 outperformed one of the best closers in the game.
