Blake Treinen Worth Monitoring in Deeper Leagues?
Los Angeles Dodgers relief pitcher Blake Treinen got his first save of the season on Monday night against the Rockies. He only needed four pitches to get the job done in his team's 5-3, come-from-behind win. Lefty Alex Vesia started the ninth and got two outs, but allowed a single to Willi Castro. When the Rockies went to pinch-hitter Braxton Fulford as the potential tying run, manager Dave Roberts countered by bringing in the righty Trieinen. Treinen struck out Fulford to end the game, posting his ninth scoreless outing in his last 11 appearances. The 37-year-old veteran is 1-1 with a 3.24 ERA and 3.97 FIP in his 21 games this season and has mostly been used in middle relief. With Tanner Scott pitching back-to-back days before Monday's win and the comeback way the game came together, Trienen's save seems like an outlier, but in deep leagues, he is worth watching to see if he gets more work at the end of the game as the Dodgers continue to cover until Edwin Diaz (elbow) returns.
