Vinnie Pestano

Once thought to be the Indians' closer-in-waiting, Pestano was traded to the Angels in August. Though he struggled at the major league level with Cleveland, he excelled in the minors, securing a microscopic 1.78 ERA through 30.1 innings at Triple-A Columbus. That dominance followed Pestano to his new organization, as he allowed just three earned runs in 17.2 frames over time split between Triple-A Salt Lake and the big club. One concern about Pestano last year seemed to be the loss of velocity on his fastball, as the pitch averaged 89.9 miles per hour after being clocked at 91.2 the year before, but the 30-year-old appeared to get his strikeout prowess back nonetheless, tallying punchout rates over 29 percent at Columbus, Salt Lake, and with the Halos. Pestano signed a one-year deal with the Angels in November, and could be a candidate to stick in the bullpen out of spring training in 2015.
