Bio
West, a 23-year-old from Atlanta, MO, went 5-2 with a 3.77 ERA in 20 appearances (3 starts). The 6-2 212-pound hurler struggled in a starting role to begin his professional career, but excelled in the bullpen and was a key part of the Gateway relief core down the stretch.
“West really got comfortable in his role in our bullpen last season,” Warren commented. “We knew he had great talent and we were able to see that when he was flourishing in the bullpen.”
