Steve Cishek is best known for his five seasons in Baseball, which was spent with the Florida/Miami Marlins where he served as their closer in 2013 and 2014. Cishek led the National League in Games Finished (62) but was inconsistent and traded to St. Louis in 2015.
Cishek signed with the Seattle Mariners in 2016 and saved 25 Games for the team, but that was the last season he was used in that role. He was still solid later on in stints with Tampa (2017) and the Chicago Cubs (2018-19), but he petered out over the next three seasons, one each with Chicago (AL), Los Angeles (AL), and Washington, respectively.
Cishek is unlikely to make the Hall of Fame ballot, but he did leave baseball with 737 Makor League Games on the mound.
Steve Cishek first made the Marlins roster three years after he was drafted in 2007 and the year after he was called up again to stay.
Pegged as a Relief Pitcher from the beginning, Cishek moved into the closer's role during the 2012 Season and would lead the National League in Games Finished (62) and had 34 Saves. Cishek compiled 39 Saves in 2014, though his ERA climbed over three. That would be his last full year with Miami, as he was traded to St. Louis the following summer.
Cishek finished 191 Games for the Marlins with 94 Saves.
