The Baller Ranks: Top 65 Relief Pitchers Weekly Rankings

Welcome to the Week 3 Relief Pitcher Baller Ranks, where we take a look weekly at where the top 65 RPs stand moving forward in this strange sprint season. You can check out my weekly Top 101 Starting Pitcher Baller Ranks as well. David Emerick rolled out an introduction to our Baller Ranks here, and also […]


The Baller Ranks: Top 200 Hitters Weekly Rankings (Week 3)

Welcome to fantasy baseball if MLB's season were more like the XFL. Between injuries, illness, and inexplicable flukes, this season has already shown the potentially disastrous consequences of an otherwise quiet road-trip to Atlanta. This weeks' news about the Miami-Philadelphia and St. Louis-Milwaukee situations has provided new variables, and managers are scrambling to keep up […]


Trevor Gott (RP, SF) - Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 31% of leagues ANALYSIS: San Francisco Giants relief pitcher Trevor Gott earned the first two save opportunities of the season for the team and converted both of them. He's clearly the team's primary closer at least for now. While the Giants don't figure to be in position to […]


Daily Slivers of the Fantasy Soapbox - Yesterday's Recap

Welcome to the August 3rd edition of Daily Slivers of the Fantasy Soapbox. Discussing baseball is as fun as the game itself. It has a way of bringing people together to share different opinions about the sport we all love. A similar action can be done with fantasy baseball where we not only discuss topics […]


Cole Sulser Earns Multi-Inning Save Sunday

Baltimore Orioles relief pitcher Cole Sulser pitched two scoreless innings to earn his third save of the season in Sunday's 5-1 win over the Rays. Sulser started the eighth inning up 4-1 and got three straight outs and then stayed on to pitch a 1-2-3 ninth inning. He finished the game with no walks or […]


Tyler Alexander Heading Towards Joining Tigers Rotation

Detroit Tigers left-handed pitcher Tyler Alexander made history during Game 1 of Sunday's doubleheader versus the Reds when he struck out nine consecutive batters, tying the American League record. Alexander’s appearance was out of relief and may have forced the hand of manager Ron Gardenhire, who said that after watching the southpaw that he “might […]


Ty Buttrey Gets Save Chance Sunday, Gives Up Lead

Los Angeles Angels right-handed pitcher Ty Buttrey was tabbed to close out Sunday’s contest against the Astros in favor of closer Hansel Robles, but he was unable to lock down the win. It’s been a rough start to 2020 for Buttrey, who has now allowed runs in three of his first four outings. He combined […]


Jonathan Hernandez Dominates In Two Innings

Texas Rangers reliever Jonathan Hernandez came into Sunday's game and dominated the San Francisco Giants in the late innings. Hernandez pitched two innings and struck out four Giants with one walk given up. He gave up the walk to lead off the eighth inning but came back with back-to-back-to-back swinging strikeouts of Pablo Sandoval, Chadwick […]


Jairo Diaz Locks Down First Save Of Season Sunday

Colorado Rockies right-handed pitcher Jairo Diaz stepped into the closer's role Sunday and notched his first save of 2020 in Wade Davis’ absence. The closer’s spot in Colorado has been contentious since Davis’ arrival and subsequent decline in production, but Diaz has now worked 4 ⅓ scoreless innings this year and could be in line […]


Devin Smeltzer Earns Win On Sunday

Minnesota Twins pitcher Devin Smeltzer worked the second two innings of the opener on Sunday and picked up his first win of the season. The 24-year-old allowed two hits, one run and walked one batter while striking out a pair. It was a much better outing this time around for Smeltzer, who was shelled for […]


Sergio Romo Works Save Chance Sunday

Minnesota Twins right-handed pitcher Sergio Romo was brought on for a save opportunity Sunday against Cleveland with left-hander Taylor Rogers having worked each of the past two days. It’s unlikely that Romo has supplanted Rogers as the team’s primary closer moving forward, but it’s clear that manager Rocco Baldelli is confident turning the ball over […]


Tyler Alexander Ties AL Record With Nine Straight K’s

Detroit Tigers left-handed pitcher Tyler Alexander was dominant out of relief during Sunday’s game against the Reds, striking out each of the first nine batters that he faced, which tied the American League record for consecutive batters retired by the K. Alexander fell just a batter shy of tying Hall of Famer Tom Seaver’s all-time […]


Aroldis Chapman Could Throw Bullpen Tomorrow

New York Yankees closer Aroldis Chapman (illness) could throw a bullpen session on Monday, according to manager Aaron Boone. Chapman has been playing catch, but has yet to step on a mound since contracting the virus. This would be a step in the right direction for the flamethrowing lefty, who was recently cleared to workout […]


Roberto Osuna Placed On 10-Day Injured List

Houston Astros closer Roberto Osuna (elbow) was placed on the 10-day injured list on Sunday with right elbow soreness. Osuna was pulled from Saturday's game during a save situation and the team will now be without his services for the near future. It's another injury to a pitching staff that has been decimated by them […]


Keone Kela Cleared To Throw

Pittsburgh Pirates closer Keone Kela (COVID-19) was cleared to workout on Sunday according to manager Derek Shelton. There's a possibility that Kela will be able to throw off the mound today, though the team said he'll need a couple sessions of facing live hitters before he's ready. It's unclear when he'll be available to pitch […]


Scott Oberg Likely Done For Year, Wade Davis To Injured List

Colorado Rockies relievers Scott Oberg (blood clots) and Wade Davis (shoulder) both hit the injured list on Sunday. Oberg's injury is more serious- he has blood clots in his right arm- and will almost certainly cause him to miss the rest of the shortened season. It's not the first time he's dealt with blood clots, […]

Liam Hendriks Pitches Clean Tenth For Save

Oakland Athletics relief pitcher Liam Hendriks pitched a clean tenth inning to protect a one-run lead and earn his second save of the season. Hendriks induced two pop-ups and struck out J.P. Crawford to end the game, while keeping the automatic runner at second from crossing the plate to tie it up. He is now […]

Rowan Wick Nails Down Save, Craig Kimbrel Not Used

Chicago Cubs right-handed pitcher Rowan Wick was tabbed to earn the save in Saturday’s game against the Pirates. After manager David Ross was asked earlier in the day about whether or not Craig Kimbrel was his closer after two rough outings thus far in 2020, Wick earned his third career save. While owners will want […]


Austin Brice To Work As Opener For Sunday’s Game

Boston Red Sox right-hander Austin Brice has been tabbed as the opener for Sunday’s series finale against the Yankees. Brice has worked in four games out of relief this season, yielding four runs in 4 ⅔ innings, including a pair of home runs. That propensity for allowing the long ball doesn’t bode well against a […]


Roberto Osuna Departs With Injury, Astros Bullpen Thin

Houston Astros right-handed closer Roberto Osuna was lifted during a save opportunity Saturday against the Angels, marking yet another arm that appears to be injured for a pitching staff that has been dismantled by injuries in the early part of 2020. Entering the day, only Osuna and right-hander Ryan Pressly were available in relief that […]


Taylor Rogers Strikes Out Two, Notches Third Save

Minnesota Twins closer Taylor Rogers closed out the ninth for the second consecutive night on Saturday. Rogers struck out two and surrendered no walks or hits en route to his third save of the 2020 season. The 29-year-old has barely broken a sweat in each of his three innings pitched this year and looks like […]


David Hale Locks Down Save, Zach Britton Not Used

New York Yankees right-handed pitcher David Hale worked the final two innings of Saturday’s game against the Red Sox, earning his third career save. Hale tossed 34 pitches and faced left-handed hitter Andrew Benintendi as the tying run in the ninth, indicating that left-hander Zach Britton was likely unavailable, despite having pitched just once since […]


Cardinals And Tigers To Play Four Games In Detroit

The St. Louis Cardinals season is scheduled to continue on Tuesday in Detroit. The two teams were scheduled to play two games in St. Louis and two in Detroit, starting on Monday. Instead, due to COVID-19 concerns, the two teams will play four games in Detroit starting on Tuesday, including a double header on Wednesday. […]


Cardinals-Brewers Double Header Postponed

The scheduled double header set for Sunday between the St. Louis Cardinals and the Milwaukee Brewers has been postponed due to COVID-19 concerns. The two teams were going to play the double header to make up for Friday's game, which was postponed. Now, Saturday's game is also off the schedule, and Sunday's two games won't […]


James Karinchak (RP, CLE) - Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 21% of leagues ANALYSIS: James Karinchak came into the 2020 season as a sleeper for saves and he picked up his first career save against the Minnesota Twins on Thursday. Those save opportunities may come thick and fast after Cleveland Indians regular closer Brad Hand has started the […]


James Hoyt Becomes Latest Reliever Traded To Miami

The Miami Marlins’ bullpen overhaul continued Saturday as they acquired right-handed pitcher James Hoyt from the Cleveland Indians. Hoyt had been designated for assignment earlier in the week after having appeared in eight games last season for Cleveland, allowing two runs and striking out 10 in 8 ⅓ innings. Miami has had to reconstruct its […]


Chris Devenski Placed On IL Amid Rough Start To 2020

Houston Astros right-hander Chris Devenski is battling right elbow soreness and has been put on the injured list. Devenski was tagged for three runs in his most recent outing last Sunday. Houston’s pitching staff has been taxed by injuries in the early part of the 2020 year, with yet another valuable piece going by the […]
