Mark Leiter Jr.

Leiter Jr. is a great example of the journeyman reliever who reinvents himself to survive, and I find those careers more compelling than the highlight-reel stars. Carrying a famous baseball surname can be a burden, but he's carved out his own path mostly out of the bullpen. There's something admirable about a pitcher who keeps grinding, gets traded around, and still finds high-leverage work. He's the kind of arm that quietly stabilizes a contender's late innings.
