Reds' Michael Lorenzen: Part of Reds' closer mix

The Reds hope to use a four-man closer committee in 2017, one where Lorenzen will be a component.

Analysis:

Raisel Iglesias and Drew Storen appear to be the primary alternatives, followed by Lorenzen and Tony Cingrani. "I would really like to see this particular game plan we have in place work out," manager Bryan Price said on Sunday. "We want to look at the end of the year and we see Storen and Iglesias and Lorenzen, in particular, with some saves. That may mean Cingrani as well, if he's the best guy we have for that situation in the ninth inning."
