Ervin Santana will be pitching out of the pen in the playoffs for the Los Angeles Angels
Ervin Santana will be pitching out of the bullpen for the Angels in the playoffs this season. He started 23 games for the Angels this season and he was 8-8 with a 5.10 ERA and a 1.47 WHIP. He did not pitch too well in the regular season but the tiebreaker on keeping him out of the rotation was likely his post-season numbers. He has pitched in 4 games (2 starts) in his career in the post season and he is 1-1 with a 6.88 ERA and a 1.24 WHIP. Still, Santana could be a huge asset in the bullpen when he can just let the ball fly for a inning or two using his nice array of pitches. He could be the Angels secret weapon in the playoff this season.
