Paul Sewald Earns Ninth Save, Remains High-Volume Saves Option
Arizona Diamondbacks relief pitcher Paul Sewald remains a very solid option at the end of the game, as he picked up his ninth save of the year on Monday night against the Rangers. Sewald entered a 1-0 game and worked a hitless ninth inning, allowing just one baserunner on a hit-by-pitch. The 35-year-old righty has converted all nine of his save opportunities this season, allowing five earned runs on six hits in 14 2/3 innings for a 3.07 ERA and 4.34 FIP. While he isn't the most dominant option in the league, Sewald consistently sees opportunities as the primary ninth-inning option for Arizona. He has nine saves in Arizona's 20 wins this season, and that total ties him for seventh-most in the majors. If he's available on the waiver wire in a league where you need saves, he's definitely worth a look, given his safe floor.
