The signing of Junior Guerra is part of #Dbacks desire to add depth to back end of bullpen. Gives Torey Lovullo another option in setup role.

#DBacks in agreement with free-agent RHP Junior Guerra, pending physical, source confirms. Deal is for one year and an option, but Guerra is under control for three more years. #Brewers non-tendered him rather than pay projected arbitration salary of $3.5M. First:

Our weakest area, as it turned out, were the 7-8-9 inning setup/closers.

I hope this is step #1 to remedy that.

We still desperately need a dependable 9th inning closer.

Previous closers, who made every 9th inning an adventure,
like Archie, were all eventually moved.

We need more than a beard to save games. We need peace
of mind. And being in control.

Okay spot starter/middle inning reliever along the lines of a better Merrill Kelly. Meh.
