His peripherals are splendid -- a 1.46 ERA and 0.73 WHIP -- so if closer Huston Street stumbles at any point this season, Gregerson could find himself with a mediocre closing gig, rather than his current nondescript role.","date":"Mon Apr 29"},"fullName":"Luke Gregerson","seasonOutlook":{"outlook":"The Padres' second-longest-tenured reliever, Gregerson should be next in line to close should Huston Street get hurt, accounting for his performance in Street's absence last summer, as well as his extensive track record of success in the holds department (107 since 2009, second most in the majors). Initially more of a right-handed specialist, Gregerson has perfected his slider to the point that he's no longer a liability against left-handed hitters, and he went 8-for-9 in save chances with five holds and a 1.15 ERA while Street was sidelined in August and September. Those who draft Street are smart to handcuff him to Gregerson, if possible, especially if your league values contributions in ERA, WHIP and holds while you're waiting for Street's inevitable annual absence.","seasonId":2013,"date":"Wed Feb 20"},"playerRater30DAY":1.8,"playerRater15DAY":0.8,"positionRank":30}
