"Carlos Estevez, who previously saved games for the Colorado Rockies, Los Angeles Angels and Philadelphia Phillies, posted a 2.45 ERA and a 1.06 WHIP with 42 saves during his first season with the Royals."
"Estevez was already someone to watch closely after a discouraging spring in which his fastball velocity was notably down. He permitted four runs and four walks in his five spring five innings, including serving up three home runs."
"After a disastrous outing against the Braves, where he recorded a 162.00 ERA, the Royals turned to Lucas Erceg and John Schreiber for saves, raising questions about Estevez's role."
Carlos Estevez, who led the league in saves last season, struggled in his first appearance this season, leading to a drop in fantasy leagues. Estevez had a strong previous season with a 2.45 ERA and 42 saves. However, his spring training was concerning, with decreased fastball velocity and poor performance. After a disastrous outing against the Braves, where he recorded a 162.00 ERA, the Royals turned to Lucas Erceg and John Schreiber for saves. Estevez's future as the team's closer is uncertain.
