White Sox pitcher Hector Santiago has been one of the team's best relievers through the first few weeks. Santiago has tossed 9 2/3 scoreless innings, allowing one hit and three walks, while striking out seven.
Manager Robin Ventura compares Santiago to a "Swiss Army Knife" because of his versatility, per the Chicago Sun-Times.
"He has good stuff and he throws strikes,'' Ventura said. "He gets a lot of swings and misses for a guy who throws a fastball. You feel safe with getting Hector in there in big spots. Down by one, he can get you back in a game.''
