2 years agoHouston Astros closer Ryan Pressly (neck) is going on the injured list on Thursday due to neck stiffness. The Astros are calling up Seth Martinez from Triple-A Sugar Land in a corresponding move. Pressly was unavailable to pitch the last two days, and now the Astros will keep him out for the next 15 days. The 33-year-old right-hander needs to be stashed in all fantasy leagues, as he's recorded 25 saves with a 3.11 ERA, 0.93 WHIP and 46 strikeouts in 37 2/3 innings this year. Bryan Abreu vultured a one-out save with Pressly unavailable on Tuesday, but Rafael Montero figures to be the team's primary ninth-inning option with Pressly sidelined.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
