This year, that person is Hansel Robles. Midway through last season, the New York Mets waived Hansel Robles. He was having a disastrous season for them, and was blowing save after save. All of his numbers were far worse than his career average, and the Mets thought they’d seen the best of Hansel Robles.
But then, the Angels claimed him, and magic happened.
Robles arrive in Anaheim and for the rest of the season held a 2.97 ERA after posting a 5.03 mark with the Mets. He was allowing 3.2 home runs per nine innings for the Mets, but gave up only two long balls in 36.
