My Take
Rowan Wick is the kind of reliever who quietly earns your respect over years without ever making the back page of the newspaper, and honestly, I kind of love that about him. The North Vancouver kid started as a catcher — yes, a catcher — before reinventing himself as a hard-throwing right-handed pitcher, which already tells you he has the mental flexibility to succeed in this sport. He carved out a real MLB career with the Cubs, where he was a dependable bullpen arm, and then bounced through San Diego and landed with the Giants. His detour to Japan with the BayStars showed both his professional range and his appetite for competition beyond comfort. A journeyman? Sure, but the good kind — the type every team wants stashed in the 'pen because he competes every single outing.
