Cade Smith Records Sixth Save
Cleveland Guardians relief pitcher Cade Smith secured his sixth save of the season in Thursday's 9-4 win over the Marlins. It didn't look like he would be needed with a five-run lead heading into the ninth, but Nic Enright loaded the bases to create a save situation with one out remaining. Smith made quick work of the situation, needing five pitches to get Liam Hicks to line out. The 26-year-old has been dominant since taking over the closer role from Emmanuel Clase, as he's now up to nine consecutive scoreless innings with nine strikeouts and one walk in that span. He has always been one of the most dominant middle relievers in baseball, and should be viewed as a top-10 closer now that the job is his.
