Holdzkom struck out two batters in a scoreless inning of relief Wednesday against Toronto.

Analysis:

The right-hander has a good shot of nailing down one of the team's final two bullpen spots, provided he shows good command and control in spring training. Holdzkom's minor-league career 6.6 BB/9 throws up red flags, but he walked just 16 batters in 45.1 combined innings last year split between the major and minor leagues.
