Bullpen Notes: April 24, 2018: Is Holland Close, Is There Reason To Watch Diaz & Iglesias Closely, Next Up News & More
Are you following @Rotoprofessor on Twitter? If not you should be, as we Tweet out all the important bullpen notes every morning from the previous day’s games. Who is in jeopardy of losing their job? Who is worth the speculative add? Here are this morning tweets (Please note we won’t be posting these on the website every day, so make sure you follow @Rotoprofessor to ensure you don’t miss a thing):
SEA: Diaz lights out w/2 K for SV. Had 5 BB in previous 3.1 IP so good sign, but needs to continue to throw strikes to continue to thrive. Has Top 5 upside, as he’s shown, if he does so. #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers

OAK: After Treinen forced out Oakland uses Trivino/Casilla to finish off game. Buchter had worked prior two days though, and if Treinen forced to miss time we’d expect him to get the opps #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers

STL: Holland throws perfect IP w/2 K. That makes back-to-back perfect outings and has 0 H/1 BB/4 K over past 3.0 IP. In other words he’s getting close to assuming closer’s role & needs to be owned in all formats #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers

MIA: Ziegler gets SV w/Steckenrider working 8th. Barraclough had thrown 24 pitches day before, but back-to-back rocky outings could change next up. It’s a situation to continue watching because change will come before long #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers

CIN: After Garrett started collapse (2.1 IP/3 R/4 H), Iglesias finished it (0.2 IP/1 R/1 H/2 BB/1 K). It’s the 2nd time in past three appearances that he’s issued 2 BB so worth watching just in case it continues #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers

SF: After drought in SV opps Strickland gets 2nd straight (perfect IP/1 K). Talk of Melancon getting close to throwing is irrelevant, if Strickland is doing job he won’t be replaced #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers

TOR: Complete collapse from Osuna (1.0 IP/2 R/4 H/1 BB/2 K) & lucky to walk away w/o L (just BSV). Of course they are the first R he’s allowed all season so hard to get too upset. He’ll bounce back w/o issue #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers

LAA: Don’t read into Bedrosian getting 4 out SB (2 K/1 BB) as Middleton had thrown 23 pitches day before (45 pitches in three days). The latter remains the man & is in no threat of losing role. #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers

ATL: Minter’s struggles continue (1.0 IP/2 R/3 H/1 BB/1 K) & now has BB in 4 straight and 8 BB over 11.1 IP overall (as well as R in 2 of past 3). Those assuming it was inevitable he’d take over for Vizcaino need to re-think for short-term #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers
— Rotoprofessor (@Rotoprofessor) April 25, 2018
NYM: Nice rebound for Familia (perfect IP/2 K/SV) after recent implosion. As we said, there’s no reason for concern at this point #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers
— Rotoprofessor (@Rotoprofessor) April 25, 2018
CWS: N. Jones w/perfect 1.1 IP in non-SV (1 K). He only has 1 SV but that’s due to opps & nothing more, as clear he’s “the man” in Chicago & could run w/role (Soria is expendable at this point) #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers
— Rotoprofessor (@Rotoprofessor) April 25, 2018
NYY: Betances, pitching in 7th, allows 1 unearned run on 1 H/2 BB/1 K over 0.1 IP. w/only 8 of 21 pitches going for strikes impossible to imagine him working way back into high leverage situations so can be cut in all formats #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers
— Rotoprofessor (@Rotoprofessor) April 25, 2018
TOR: Kimbrel takes L in non-SV (he allowed a HR to Granderson). It happens to the best of them. #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers
