Scott McGough Picks Up Second Save
2 years agoArizona Diamondbacks relief pitcher Scott McGough earned a two-out save on Sunday, securing a 7-5 win over the Detroit Tigers. The D-backs first turned to Andrew Chafin in the ninth, but after a triple and a walk, they called upon McGough to get the final two outs. He got a strikeout and a groundout to pick up his first save since April 2. This is a notable development, as Miguel Castro had been the right-handed reliever that the Diamondbacks preferred in late-inning situations lately. After a few rough outings, though, it appears they may be leaning towards McGough, who has rattled off 10 straight scoreless appearances (14 IP). Keep an eye on this situation, and possibly even add McGough in deeper categories leagues where saves matter.
