FACTS/FLUKES: Rondon, Calhoun, Healy, Hernandez, W. Peralta

Great reliever on a great team... Héctor Rondón (RHP, HOU) saved 59 games for the Cubs in 2014-2015, but struggled with gopheritis and was moved into a lower leverage role for the Cubs in 2016-2017. He signed with the Astros in the off-season and is now in the mix for saves in Houston. Does he have the skills to seize the closer job?
