Daniel Bard Named Sporting News NL Comeback Player of the Year

Posted Oct 16, 2020
After pitching in two games for the Red Sox in 2013, Daniel Bard spent the next six years either bouncing around the minors or out of pro ball completely, thanks to control issues. But he made the Rockies’ roster as a reliever in 2020, pitching to 4-2 record and a 3.65 ERA with 27 strikeouts in 24.2 innings. That kind of comeback is rare and pretty impressive. (Sporting News)
