SURPRISE, Ariz. (AP) — The Kansas City Royals are banking on Octavio Dotel to be the closer they didn’t have last season, when the club blew a major league-leading 31 saves.
“For him to be able to do what we think he can do is going to be huge for us,” manager Buddy Bell said. “We had a lot of games we should have won last year, that we didn’t because we just couldn’t finish the games.”
