My Take
A. J. Minter is exactly the kind of unglamorous specialist I find quietly admirable. A left-handed reliever out of Texas A&M, drafted by the Braves and later pitching for the Mets, he's spent his career in one of baseball's most thankless roles. High-leverage relief is brutal work, you inherit other people's messes and absorb the blame when things go wrong, often with no margin for error. Reaching the majors in 2017 and lasting through the grind of bullpen life takes a particular kind of nerve. I respect pitchers like Minter because they live entirely in pressure moments, where one bad inning erases a month of clean ones.
