Closer: Manny Parra

Manny Parra had his best season with the Palms and perhaps the best season of his career in 2013. He joined the Miami Palms in 2009 as a starter, but after the departure of Buddy Carlyle, he was relegated to the role of closer. He had 64 saves in 2011-12 combined, and then last year alone, a switch turned, his ERA dropped to 2.20, and he had 54 saves, a dramatic change in his performance to that ate. If this continues, if this is really a change n his performance and not a one season blip, then the back end of Miami's bullpen will be quite secure in 2014.
