Clayton Beeter Sharp in Four-Out Save, Emerging as Closer to Roster in Washington?
Washington Nationals relief pitcher Clayton Beeter was productive out of the bullpen on Saturday, successfully earning a four-out save against the San Diego Padres. Along the way, Beeter allowed two walks, but he surrendered zero runs and zero hits while striking out one batter. The 27-year-old right-hander is now up to three saves in 2026. He has dropped his ERA to 2.45 across 14 games (14.2 innings), and he hasn't allowed a run in his last 5.1 innings. Beeter has done a great job cutting down on the number of hits he's allowed this year, but most of his rate stats could use improvement. His 8.59 K/9 represents a career-low mark, and his 7.36 BB/9 and 1.23 HR/9 rates are both concerningly high. Nevertheless, the results speak for themselves, and Beeter's emergence as the potential go-to closer in Washington has boosted his fantasy stock immensely. He's still available on the waiver wire in 96% of fantasy baseball leagues.
