Cubs notes: Does Alzolay have what it takes to be future closer? McGrawDHSports Cubs
After finishing off the Tampa Bay Rays with a two-inning save on Tuesday night, Adbert Alzolay delivered a good impression of his longtime pal Justin Steele.
So Tuesday's result featured both legitimate emotions and maybe a glimpse into Alzolay's potential as a closer. He rolled through six batters with 4 strikeouts. "I feel like as a starting pitcher, I have to manage my velo, I have to manage the way I'm pitching because you face the same guy three times. So it was different. Coming out of the bullpen, I feel that I can just fire all my best stuff right away."
"Making that adjustment has made me better against left-handed hitters. Then the addition of my cutter too. It's just three different breaking balls I'm using." "We can't fall into this space where somebody has a good outing and they're the savior or somebody gets called up and they're the savior of the bullpen," Ross said."We're going to have to lean on all of them."
