The San Diego Padres are off to a hot start in 2020, but their lights out closer from 2019 has been ice cold to start the year.
A lot of talk in the offseason was whether or not the San Diego Padres might try to extend Kirby Yates who will become a free agent after the 2020 season.
That obviously never happened, and instead, the Padres went out and gathered a host of dependable bullpen arms that have the ability to close games.
I’m sure the Padres weren’t expecting Yates to get lit up to start the year and envisioned him being replaced.
