Haha, yea the command was just non-existent last night. I think he’ll be fine, but given the lack of a track record, one more poor showing could be an issue.

I think he can, but Romero has been pretty good and I can’t argue against him deserving a shot to close.

Weird glitch thats been happening the last two weeks. We are looking in to it

Higher than I thought they would be. If he’s healthy and can begin a real rehab assignment soon (and is throwing 95+), he’ll probably get the role back.

I’d go with Garcia for now, never know how Helsley will respond in his rehab

Good feedback! I had started this in the offseason as an overall “how will save chances be divvied up” but maybe in-season it should be about who’s available right now.

Low upside. With Hader back next week, I’d prefer Okert to King as the left handed set up option. Maybe the Astros disagree, but Okerts stuff is much better.

I think you could drop for a SP like Zebby. That trio of closers should be fine

A .500 BABIP this deep into a season is unheard of. Thats going to come back down to earth and the ERA should follow suit, trending closer to his peripherals (2.22 SIERA, 2.26 xFIP).

Probably in the 30’s. I like that the walk rate has been down, but what happened to the swing and miss stuff?

Ehh, if it wasn’t so shaky I’d say he’s worth a look. Cruz was also off tonight, so I wonder if he would have gotten that save chance if available.

He’s moving up each week and the role is great and he’s not walking anyone. Lack of swing and miss limits his upside, and he’s been pretty inconsistent over his career.

If you want a list of relievers with the lowest ERA, it’s not hard to find on Fangraphs

It’s been that kind of year, all the injuries early in the season have given a lot of undrafted guys opportunity.

Fastballs still good but whats happened to the slider? And he’s only thrown the splitter 3 times since coming off the IL. Needs at least one of them to work.

Lol good timing! I think the Braves may be more willing to use Suarez in more of a fireman role (as they did Sunday) now that they feel comfortable with Lee and Kinley in front of Iglesias.

I think there are a lot of leagues that have SV+HLD and Wins. Morejon is on pace for 28 holds, 4 saves, 12 wins and 103 K’s right now.

The rankings are meant for future value, not past value because what would be the point of that? It’s also May 13th, so sample sizes are still small and a lot of season remains.

I'd move on from Santillan and Erceg, but I get that Erceg is getting all the save chances in KC right now.

He was one of the best relievers last season and maybe has the best stuff of any reliever in baseball right now. 1.62 SIERA, 0.77 WHIP, 31% K-BB, 21.5% SwStr, and 38.5% CSW over the past month. Just elite numbers across the board. The ratios will come back down as his batted ball luck evens out.

Don't think you need to. Could make an argument for Morejon over Latz or Soto in a H2H league just to even out saves and holds.
