Closers and Saves Report - Week 21 Waiver Wire

The more NFL rumblings we hear, the closer we are to the fantasy baseball playoffs. With sports news fully engrossed with helmets and frostbitten feet, baseball rumbles along through August. The lack of a waiver trade deadline has made August a bit quieter than usual in the baseball world, but there's still tons going on, […]


Carlos Martinez Saves His 15th Game on Thursday

St. Louis Cardinals closer Carlos Martinez closed out his 15th game of the season on Thursday, tossing a scoreless ninth inning. He did allow two walks, but didn't give up a hit, keeping the inning scoreless. He was able to save a 6-5 win for the Cardinals and lowered his ERA to 3.74.


Ken Giles On Paternity List

The Toronto Blue Jays placed closer Ken Giles on the paternity list on Thursday. Giles should only be away from the team for a handful of days. In his absence, Justin Shafer and Derek Law could be used to close out games in the ninth inning, with Shafer being the better fantasy target if you're […]


Logan Webb Scheduled To Start Sunday

San Francisco Giants pitcher Logan Webb is available in relief for Thursday's game against the Cubs, but he will make his next start on Sunday against the Athletics if he is not needed on Thursday. The 22-year-old made his MLB debut on August 17 after a successful season in the minors where he posted a […]


Ryan Pressly Out 4-6 Weeks

Houston Astros relief pitcher Ryan Pressly (knee) will undergo arthroscopic surgery on his right knee on Friday, according to general manager Jeff Luhnow. Pressly is expected to return in four to six weeks. The 30-year-old has only three saves this year, but he's been relevant in deeper leagues for his ratios, as he's been excellent […]


Brandon Workman Surrenders Run In Ninth

Boston Red Sox relief pitcher Brandon Workman allowed one run on one hit, one walk, and two strikeouts in a non-save appearance on Wednesday against the Phillies. Workman has been solid in August, allowing just two runs in 9 1/3 innings, while recording two saves and a 13/1 K/BB. He's been Boston's most reliable bullpen […]


Jairo Diaz Will Get Save Chances

Colorado Rockies relief pitcher Jairo Diaz was named by manager Bud Black as someone who will get save chances for the rest of this season as the team tries to figure out the debacle that is their bullpen. Diaz has been quite good for the last month or so, carrying a 1.46 ERA with a […]


Wade Davis Officially Demoted Again

Colorado Rockies relief pitcher Wade Davis was awarded the closing gig once again when Scott Oberg (blood clot) hit the Injured List, but that was short-lived. After blowing two straight games, Davis was officially moved out of the role once again by manager Bud Black. Black told reporters that he's going to give opportunities to […]


Kenley Jansen Blows Sixth Save On Wednesday

Los Angeles Dodgers closer Kenley Jansen surrendered a game-tying solo home run to Rowdy Tellez in the top of the ninth inning during Wednesday's 2-1 win over the Toronto Blue Jays. It was Jansen's sixth blown save of the campaign. The 31-year-old has been uncharacteristically porous in 2019, as evidenced by an unsightly 3.70 ERA […]

Digging Deeper: AL-Only Waiver Wire Report for Week 21

Every week in baseball, a significant player will hit the injured list, slip into a slump, or get traded out of a good spot. How fantasy owners adapt to these situations can make or break the season as a whole. One lousy add might not hurt the long-term standing of a team, but failing to […]


Daily Slivers of the Fantasy Soapbox - Yesterday's Recap

Welcome to the Thursday, August 22nd 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 […]


Brad Hand Struggles Again on Wednesday

Cleveland Indians closer Brad Hand struggled on Wednesday against the Mets, taking a loss and a blown save. He got just two outs, allowing two runs on three hits and a walk. He threw 18 pitches, faced six batters, and watched the Mets walk off. It was Hand's fifth blown save and his record dropped […]


Matt Magill Blows Save Against Rays

Seattle Mariners relief pitcher Matt Magill allowed two runs without recording an out to blow the save Wednesday at Tampa Bay. Magill was tasked with protecting a one-run lead after the Mariners rallied in the top of the ninth, but faced four batters without recording an out as the Rays walked off with the win. […]


Dustin May Will Start Next Week

Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Dustin May will move back to the starting rotation and start a game next week according to manager Dave Roberts. May had been pitching in relief, but Roberts said he will not pitch again until he makes a start. It is still unclear what day May will toe the rubber but […]


Josh James to Rehab on Thursday

Houston Astros relief pitcher Josh James (shoulder) is scheduled to begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Round Rock on Thursday. James has been sidelined since July 23 due to arm fatigue. He'll likely need a few appearances in the minors before he's ready to rejoin the bullpen in Houston. He doesn't have much fantasy value, […]


Brandon Morrow's Season Is Over

Chicago Cubs president Theo Epstein said that relief pitcher Brandon Morrow (elbow) suffered another setback and will miss the rest of the season. The team's former closer hasn't pitched in the majors since before the All-Star break in 2018. He lost any real chance to return to fantasy relevance when the Cubs traded for Craig […]


Emilio Pagan Blows Save, Steals Win

Tampa Bay Rays closer Emilio Pagan blew his seventh save of the season against the Seattle Mariners on Wednesday, although he managed to get the win after the Rays walked it off in the ninth. Pagan entered the game in the top of the ninth with the Rays ahead 5-3 before letting up a solo home […]


Clay Holmes On IL With Quad Injury

Pittsburgh Pirates relief pitcher Clay Holmes has been placed on the 10-day injured list with discomfort in his left quadriceps. Holmes has only appeared in two games since coming off the IL earlier this month with a triceps injury, going 5 2/3 innings and giving up one earned run on two hits and seven walks. […]


Jonathan Loaisiga Bounces Back In Defeat

While the New York Yankees suffered a 6-2 loss to kick off their West Coast road trip, their second pitcher on the night gave them cause for hope. Pitcher Jonathan Loaisiga, who just returned from an extended injury absence, bounced back in a very positive way. After getting battered last Thursday in his return, the […]

Matt Barnes Posts Third Consecutive Scoreless Appearance

Boston Red Sox relief pitcher Matt Barnes struck out two and walked one in the ninth inning of Tuesday's 3-2 loss to Philadelphia. Barnes hasn't allowed a run over his last three appearances and has a 5/2 K/BB over those two complete innings. However, the righty hasn't recorded a save since June 6, so his […]

Digging Deeper: NL-Only Waiver Report for Week 21

Every week in baseball, a significant player will hit the injured list, slip into a slump, or get traded out of a good spot. How fantasy owners adapt to these situations can make or break the season as a whole. One lousy add might not hurt the long-term standing of a team, but failing to […]


Hunter Strickland is Fine for Tuesday

Washington Nationals relief pitcher Hunter Strickland (nose) had a weightlifting bar fall on his face during Tuesday's workout. Strickland had an MRI on his nose and it appears to be nothing serious. Sean Doolittle (knee) is sidelined, so Strickland could the first guy called upon in the ninth inning on Tuesday.


Steve Cishek Activated on Tuesday

Chicago Cubs relief pitcher Steve Cishek (hip) has been activated from the 10-day injured list on Tuesday. He missed 10 days of action due to left hip inflammation, but is ready to pitch out of the bullpen on Tuesday. However, Craig Kimbrel is back as well, so Cishek won't see too many ninth inning save […]


Sean Doolittle Will Remain Closer

Washington Nationals manager Dave Martinez said that closer Sean Doolittle (knee) will remain the team's closer when he returns from his knee tendinitis. In his last 10 appearances before going on the injured list, Doolittle had allowed 12 runs and seven home runs. The left-hander has been doing exercises in the weight room to strengthen […]


Roberto Osuna Notches 28th Save

Houston Astros closer Roberto Osuna struck out two batters in a scoreless ninth inning to pick up his 28th save of the season against the Tigers on Monday. Osuna allowed one hit but was able to convert on his fourth save of the month. Osuna has recently hit his first rough patch of the season, […]

A.J. Puk to Join Athletics on Tuesday

Oakland Athletics pitcher A.J. Puk is expected to join the major league team ahead of Tuesday's game against the New York Yankees. Puk is one of the highest rated pitching prospects in baseball right now. He's posted a 4.97 ERA this season in the minors, but is coming off Tommy John surgery. He's going to […]


Jose Urena Will Make Rehab Start Monday

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Jose Urena (back) is scheduled to make a rehab start with Double-A Jacksonville on Monday. Urena threw one inning during his last outing on Friday and is scheduled to throw one inning on Monday. He's been sidelined since the beginning of June due to back issues. It appears the Marlins are […]
