Clayton Beeter Picks up His Second Save of the Season on Saturday
Washington Nationals right-handed reliever, Clayton Beeter, picked up his second save of the season on Saturday in the Nationals' 3-1 win over the Milwaukee Brewers. Beeter worked the ninth inning up 3-0, and allowed an earned run on one hit, two walks, and two strikeouts. He needed 24 pitches to get through the ninth inning, 12 of which he threw for strikes. Beeter wasn't particularly sharp in this outing; however, he appears to be the leader in the relievers' room to continue to earn saves for a Nationals team that is sitting at 7-8 on the season after sweeping the Brewers over the weekend. Beeter has three save opportunities compared to Cole Henry's two, Gus Varland's two, and Ken Waldichuk's one. While the path is still a bit muddy for Beeter, he appears to be the frontrunner and is worth a waiver wire pickup in deeper leagues requiring saves as a category. On the season, Beeter owns a 3.52 ERA, 1.17 WHIP, and six strikeouts in seven appearances to go along with those two saves.
