31. Jesse Crain, Relief Pitcher
Status: Signed by the Houston Astros to a one year deal worth $3.25 million.
The run on relievers ends with Jesse Crain, who may be the most attractive set-up option after posting a sparkling 0.74 ERA on his way to making his first All-Star team in 2013. However, shoulder problems knocked Crain out for much of the second half of the season, as he failed to appear in a game following a trade to Tampa Bay. Prior to the injuries, Crain was having a career year. It will be interesting to see if injuries prevent him from cashing in on it.
