[h=4]The New York Yankees have showcased an incredible bullpen this season, but Tyler Clippard simply can’t be forgotten.[/h]Adam Warren shuts down the middle of the game. Dellin Betances and Aroldis Chapman close out opponents. Yet the biggest piece of the puzzle is often unrecognized in right-hander Tyler Clippard.
Clippard, the journeyman reliever, has finally found a permanent home in the New York Yankees bullpen and his success on the mound ultimately plays a big role in the overall success of the Yankees.
We saw brilliant performances from Clippard last season. It might take him some time to get into the groove this season but when he does, he’ll be the key piece in holding that bullpen together.
He can serve as a bridge to the closers. He can be the closer. He can pitch one or two innings in relief of a starter. He can do it all.
Tyler Clippard’s versatility makes him one of the most dangerous weapons in an already stacked bullpen. Let’s give him a little more credit when it comes to his quietly successful performances.
