Getty The Astros wasted no time in naming Josh Hader their closer after his return from shoulder surgery.
The Houston Astros welcome back Josh Hader from injury. The left-hander’s season has been delayed due to biceps tendinitis, which slowed his recovery from shoulder surgery.
With Hader back in the bullpen, Astros manager Joe Espada made clear what the left-hander’s role will be. Espada told reporters, including Brian McTaggart of MLB.com, that Hader will “step right back into the closer role.”
