David Bednar Remains a Steady Option for Saves
New York Yankees closer David Bednar continues to rack up saves while handling leverage opportunities out of the bullpen. He did experience a minor blip on Sunday when he surrendered one run over 0.2 innings and was hit with the loss, but for the most part, he has been productive. He's now 1-3 with a 2.47 FIP, 11.12 K/9, 2.65 BB/9, a 56.3% ground ball rate, and 10 saves over 17 games (17.0 innings). No other Yankees pitcher has earned a save this season, so Bednar's job remains safe despite an occasional subpar outing. Given that the Yankees have the second-best record in the American League, save situations should continue to present themselves to Bednar quite often. He remains a steady option for saves, and he ranks as the #9 reliever in RotoBaller's latest fantasy baseball rankings.
