Luke Gregerson to close for Houston

April 4, 2016

Houston Astros — After staying mum on Sunday, A.J. Hinch announced Monday that Luke Gregerson will be the team’s “primary closer.” While this is a bit of a surprise, Giles had struggled all spring, finishing with a 6.75 ERA and 1.61 WHIP. His strikeouts were still there, though, so he should be able to right the ship soon and will be in line for saves if Gregerson falters.

Updated hierarchy: Gregerson | Giles | Neshek.
