Posted Dec 6, 2020
Daniel Bard made his return to the majors in 2020 after not pitching in the big leagues for over seven years. The Rockies signed the 35-year-old righthander, who had retired from baseball in 2017 after a minor league stint with the Mets, to a minor league contract in February. Bard’s return went so well he became the Rockies' closer during the season. (Boston Globe)
