Right-hander Michael King, who recently went from the Yankees to the Padres in the Juan Soto trade, gives the bullpen a valuable swingman who can fill a variety of roles from late-inning, high-leverage situations to spot starts.
Bryan Abreu pitched primarily in a setup role bridging the gap to Houston Astros closer Ryan Pressly, but he was the team's best reliever, posting a 1.75 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and 12.5 K/9 with five saves and 24 holds in 72 appearances.
Rounding out the relief corps is a trio of pre-arbitration closers in Jhoan Durán (27/32 SV, 2.45 ERA, 12.1 K/9), Alexis Díaz (37/40, 3.07 ERA, 11.5 K/9) and Camilo Doval (39/47 SV, 2.93 ERA, 11.6 K/9).
