John Axford (RP, COL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Saves Leagues

OWNED IN: 8% of Fleaflicker Leagues

ANALYSIS: Earlier today, closer Adam Ottavino was placed on the DL with an arm injury. There's no timetable yet on his return, and John Axford will most likely step in as the replacement closer. There's a chance the Rafael Betancourt could be in the mix for saves as well, but Axford got the most recent chance and has better numbers on the year. Axford has plenty of closing experience, and could provide a saves boost for your teams off the waiver wire. If you're looking to add a potential closer, add Axford and see how this situation plays out.
