Bullpen Notes: August 17, 2018: Is Rondon Losing Grasp On Role, Don’t Read Into Philadelphia’s Usage & 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):
PHI: Don’t read into Neshek getting SV, as Dominguez had worked prior two days (31 pitches). That said it wouldn’t be surprising if Neshek got a few SV opportunities as team continues to fail to commit to Dominguez in role #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers

HOU: Rondon struggles in BSV (1 R/1 H/2 BB), after Osuna pitches 9th (1 H/1 BB/1 K). They haven’t been complete disasters but Rondon has now blown back-to-back SV. He shouldn’t be out yet, but won’t take much for Osuna to get shot #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers

TEX: Another dominant outing for Leclerc (perfect IP/3 K). Control has been biggest question but now has 2+ K in four straight (9 K vs. 1 BB) & only 3 BB over past 16.0 IP since July 4 (26 K in that span). Those are elite numbers & could continue #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers

MIN: Just when you think Hildenberger had emerged Magill opens 9th (1 R/2 H/1 BB/0.2 IP) before Rogers gets final out for SV. We’d expect Hildenberger to continue getting bulk of chances, but don’t lock him into role quite yet #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers

CHC: w/Strop having worked back-to-back days (38 pitches) the Cubs use 4 pitchers to piece together final 2.0 IP. Chavez happened to be the guy getting the final out but this is Strop’s job & he may not relinquish it even once Morrow returns #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers

STL: Hicks struggles in 8th (2 R/2 H/2 BB) & Norris locks down SV (1 H/1 K). Not that there was any question as to who “the man” was, just gives him even more rope to work with #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers

NYY: Robertson gets SV, but keep in mind game was called in the 7th due to rain. Chapman may have had some struggles, but this SV was due to circumstances and nothing else #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers

CLE: Allen locks down SV (1 BB/2 K), though he’ll likely continue to share opps with Hand. Bigger story is Miller continues to struggle, needing 23 pitches to get 2 outs (1 R/1 BB/1 K). Team needs to get him right before October #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers
