The Washington Nationals bullpen has gotten better over the last month or so that there aren’t as many people calling for the team to call up relievers from Triple-A Syracuse. However, that doesn’t mean good performances at Syracuse shouldn’t be recognized. One name that has flown under the radar in the Nats minor league system is Wander Suero.
Suero was promoted from Double-A Harrisburg to Syracuse back on June 2. While with the Senators, the 25-year-old right-hander had a 1.96 ERA in 18 games and had ten saves in 11 chances. As a reliever, you have to throw strikes and Suero did that with 23 strikeouts to just five walks in those games.
