Since the end of last season, the National League Central has seen three faces and one name change in the ninth inning.
The Cubs lost closer Wade Davis to free agency and installed Brandon Morrow in his place. The Cardinals' ongoing search for a closer continued until they signed Greg Holland on Opening Day, then it eventually led them to Bud Norris. All-Star closer Corey Knebel returned for the Brewers, but his early-season injury forced manager Craig Counsell to get creative for the time being.
The Pirates kept their lights-out lefty closer, but even he offers a different look these days -- the former Felipe Rivero now goes by Felipe Vazquez.
