The conclusion of the regular season prompts a review of relief pitchers who underperformed relative to their draft positions. Key players like Edwin Diaz of the New York Mets and Camilo Doval of the San Francisco Giants faced significant struggles, with injuries and poor performance impacting their seasons.
Other notable mentions include Alexis Diaz from the Cincinnati Reds, David Bednar of the Pittsburgh Pirates, and Jordan Romano from the Toronto Blue Jays, all of whom had disappointing years despite high expectations.
