3. Huston Street

Huston Street is set to make some serious coin next season. In fact, he’s going to $9 million next season. That’s more than his two potential closers. Last season Street struggled on the mound, he clearly wasn’t himself with an ERA of 6.45 in just 26 games.

He also suffered from an oblique injury and was also shut down for knee surgery in August. This is predominantly why the Angels struggled in late game situations. It’s unclear how the 33-year-old righty will match up to Bedrosian and Bailey next season. However, you have to assume is contract will come into play at some point during Spring Training.
