Although Rockies reliever Adam Ottavino has just one career save in 181 relief appearances, manager Walt Weiss said the right-hander has the stuff to close games at the major-league level.
In fact, Weiss just might consider using Ottavino for a save situation if closer LaTroy Hawkins is unavailable this season.
"It's back-end-of-the-game stuff," Weiss said. "There's times where we've got to use a closer by committee and he would certainly be one of those options."
