A.J. Ramos (RP, MIA) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues

OWNED IN: 48% of Fleaflicker Leagues

ANALYSIS:  Coming into this season it looked like the closer position was tightly held by Steve Cishek who has held position tightly for two seasons.  During that time Cishek saved 73 games with a 2.33 ERA & 3.17 ERA and decent WHIP stats.  However in 2015 Cishek has been a different story posting a horrific stat line.

The Marlins made a switch to A.J. Ramos who is having a fantastic season so far (1.13 ERA, 0.75 WHIP, three saves) with 30 Ks in 24 innings of work.  Outside of those stats Ramos's K/9 stats show that he has been a closer in waiting for years posting 9.7 or higher all 4 years in the majors.  Currently the Marlin's are struggling to win games but once they get out of this losing streak Ramos will get plenty of save opportunities. If you are on the hunt for a closer, A.J. Ramos would be an ideal target for you, as he is still only 48% owned.
