1 year agoBoston Red Sox closer Kenley Jansen (back) has been scratched from the team's Grapefruit League game on Monday versus the Minnesota Twins due to lower-back tightness. However, he could pitch as soon as Tuesday, and the Red Sox still expect that he'll be ready for Opening Day on March 28. Jansen didn't make his spring training debut until last Friday due to lat soreness that he experienced after reporting to camp a month ago, so he hasn't been able to get much work in this spring. Boston is being extra cautious with the 36-year-old veteran reliever. Jansen is MLB's active leader in saves and will be Boston's primary ninth-inning man in 2024, but the injuries are beginning to pile up, and he should be considered a shaky No. 2 fantasy closer.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

4 weeks agoLos Angeles Angels relief pitcher Kenley Jansen (shoulder) is scheduled to make his spring training debut against the Athletics on Saturday. Jansen missed the end of last season due to shoulder inflammation, but it wasn't expected to be an issue heading into the 2025 season. Jansen signed a one-year deal with the Angels over the offseason. The assumption is that Jansen will operate as the closer given he's 32 saves away from passing Lee Smith for third in all time in career save. Ben Joyce will likely operate as the set-up man and learn behind Jansen before taking over as the closer of the future in Los Angeles.--Andy Webb - RotoBaller

2 months agoAccording to Jon Heyman of the New York Post, relief pitcher Kenley Jansen has agreed to a one-year, $10 million contract with the Los Angeles Angels on Tuesday. Jansen has spent the last two seasons with the Boston Red Sox after a brief stint with the Atlanta Braves and a long tenure with the Los Angeles Dodgers. Last season, Jansen posted a 3.29 ERA and a 1.06 WHIP across 54 2/3 innings. He struck out 62 batters and tallied 27 saves. He ended the season on the injured list with a shoulder injury but is not expected to be limited during spring training. He posted a below-average 9.2 percent walk rate but was able to limit hard contact with a strong 37.0 percent hard-hit rate. He also generated a 3.24 xERA and a .208 xBA, which placed him in the 82nd and 86th percentile, respectively. He has tallied at least 25 saves in each of the past four seasons. Joining the Angels, fantasy managers should expect Jansen to operate as the top ninth-inning option, which will move Ben Joyce to a setup role.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller

2 months agoAccording to Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com, the Boston Red Sox are not expected to re-sign free-agent relief pitcher Kenley Jansen. The team remains linked to several of the top relief pitchers, but Jansen will likely not return to Boston. The 37-year-old spent the past two seasons with the Red Sox and held a 3.44 ERA and a 1.16 WHIP across 99 1/3 innings of work. He tallied 56 saves with 114 strikeouts. Cotillo noted that given how his time in Boston ended last season, the door is likely closed on a reunion. During the final weeks, Jansen was placed on the injured list and did not travel with the team. In addition, before the team's final three games, the reliever cleaned out his locker and went home. Jansen spent most of his career with the Los Angeles Dodgers from 2010 through 2021. Throughout the offseason, the right-hander has been linked to several teams, including the Toronto Blue Jays.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller

6 months agoBoston Red Sox closer Kenley Jansen (shoulder) is expected to land on the IL, ending his season. Jansen has been battling a shoulder injury for a while now and has battled control and velocity issues because of it. Manager Alex Cora said that Jansen has had some trouble bouncing back from outings, including Sunday in his inning of work against the Minnesota Twins. The righty is set to become a free agent at the end of this year, but his age combined with his recent injury history could scare teams away from him. The Red Sox will likely close by committee for the final week of the season, with Chris Martin and Justin Slaten the favorites to get saves.--Matt Garon - RotoBaller
