One of the Minnesota Twins more valuable assets could prove to be reliever Addison Reed. The former closer has recently fallen out of favor with the Twins and was removed from his role as set-up man.
However, it’s his experience pitching late in games, especially as a closer, that is the most tantalizing about acquiring him. Reed has a 3.40 ERA with 125 saves during his career, including 40 saves for the White Sox during the 2013 season. His contract definitely adds to his appeal for teams around MLB.
Reed signed a very affordable two-year contract with Minnesota during the offseason.
