Caleb Kilian Used in Setup Role, Should Fantasy Managers Be Concerned?
San Francisco Giants relief pitcher Caleb Kilian was earning more looks as a closer, but he could be falling back into a setup role. Kilian earned the save on Tuesday when he tossed 1.1 scoreless innings against the Los Angeles Dodgers. On Saturday, Kilian was used to get the final two outs of the eighth inning against the Athletics. After that, Matt Gage was handed the ball to finish out the final frame. It appears the Giants aren't committed to using one closer at the moment. Kilian has pitched well with a 1.40 ERA, 1.09 WHIP, and 19 strikeouts across 19.1 innings of work this season. His overall fantasy value could take a hit if he ends up in a committee role with Gage and possibly others.
