Emmanuel Clase Rebounds For 19th Save Monday
Emmanuel Clase had a nice bounce-back performance after a blown save on Sunday to earn his 19th save of the season in Monday's 7-5 win over the Astros. Clase came in to pitch the bottom of the ninth inning up by two and shut the door with a 1-2-3 outing. The 27-year-old has not been quite as automatic as he has in previous seasons, but he has still converted 19 of 23 save opportunities with a 3.20 ERA, a 1.32 WHIP, and an 8.92 K/9 rate in 39 1/3 innings of work. He has gotten unlucky on balls in play, with a .357 BABIP that is almost 100 points higher than his career average of .261. This is an encouraging sign for fantasy managers, who can hope for some positive regression throughout the rest of the season.
