One of the best college closers of recent years, Rice righthander Bryan Price was a fireball threat buried deep in the Red Sox Nation before the Victor Martinez acquisition sent him him Cleveland. There are some questions about his health and the durability of his shoulder, which makes the comparisons to Joel Zumaya especially poignant. In 27 AA relief appearances (and one start) in 2011, he posted a 2.79 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and struck out 33 hitters in 52 innings of work. All but the last of those numbers was a small improvement on 2010. Health issues notwithstanding, he could see MLB bullpen action in 2012.
