9/07/24 Braves' Raisel Iglesias brilliance draws 'Hall of Fame' take from Brian Snitker. The Atlanta Braves have a great deal of confidence in their rotation . The team believes they have the starting pitching necessary to make a deep postseason run this year. And while Atlanta views its starters as the key to playoff success, Braves manager Brian Snitker knows the team has something truly special in closer Raisel Iglesias. “He's been about as good as I've been around, in my tenure here as a third-base coach (and) managing. We've had some Hall-of-Fame quality closers here, and he's right there with all those guys, what he's doing right now,” Snitker said of Iglesias per The Athletic's David O'Brien on X. That's certainly high praise as Snitker has been with the team on and off since

8/24/24 Nationals look to play spoiler as Braves fight for postseason. In an up-and-down season for the Atlanta Braves, one constant has been closer Raisel Iglesias. The 34-year-old holds a career-best 1.39 ERA and has converted 28 of 30 save opportunities this season. Ahead of Saturday night's matchup against the visiting Washington Nationals, Atlanta manager Brian Snitker didn't mince words on the importance of the 10-year veteran to his club. "A lot of these closers are divas, and (Raisel) is the complete opposite of that," Snitker said following Friday's 3-2, 10-inning win over Washington, in which Raisel threw two innings and got the victory to improve to 3-1.

7/10/23 Carlos Estevez has been everything the Angels could've hoped for. Last season at the trade deadline the Los Angeles Angels decided to move on from Raisel Iglesias, effectively waving the white flag on another disappointing season without a playoff appearance. This allowed the Angels to get rid of his remaining contract of 3 years and $16 million per, and gain some flexibility for the team. This off-season Carlos Estevez was signed on for a two-year deal worth $6.75 million annually to come to Anaheim. Coming off a solid season for the Colorado Rockies logging 62 games with a 3.47 ERA, Phil Nevin decided to try him out for the closer role, and it has worked amazingly.

5/01/23 Angels still searching for right bullpen mix. Perhaps no statistic defines the first month of the Angels' season more than this one: The Angels have had a lead in 24 of their 31 games, but they are 15-14. Thanks to a major league-worst seven blown saves, the Angels' potentially great start has been a month of missed opportunities. General Manager Perry Minasian has turned over the personnel in the bullpen more than any other part of the team in his three winters on the job, but it still seems to be in need of repair. Minasian's first deal in November 2020 was acquiring closer Raisel Iglesias from the Cincinnati Reds.
