Best AAA E Reliever Named
Wednesday, October 9th , 2024
At the age of 25, Nick Swiney says he still has a lot to learn about life in Triple-A East.
But he certainly seems to be a quick study, as the Rochester Red Wings reliever was better than all others this year and has captured the 2024 Triple-A East Reliever of the Year.
"I hope to win this a few more times before all is said and done in my career," the Raleigh, North Carolina native said.
For the season, Swiney had 4 saves in 46 relief appearances, which totaled 89.2. He fanned 80 betters, while walking 23 and put up a record of 9-1 to go with his 2.31 ERA.
He received 11 first place votes out of a possible 20. Jeremiah Estrada of the Louisville Bats finished second in voting with 7 first place votes, while Kai-Wei Teng of the Iowa Cubs finished third with 2 first place votes.
