Rockies reliever Daniel Bard’s storybook comeback took a sharp turn

Posted Oct 17, 2021
Colorado Rockies pitcher Daniel Bard converted 100% of his save opportunities in 2020, posting a 3.65 ERA. The expectation for Bard’s 2021 performance was set high in the offseason when the Rockies offered him more money than the amount the ex-Rockie David Dahl signed for in Texas. He converted 71% of his saves in 2021. His ERA jumped to 5.21. (Purple Row)
