RotoBaller 8 years agoBud Norris & Blake Parker (RP, LAA) - Closers & Saves Speculation
BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Leagues OWNED IN: 7% / 5% of Yahoo Leagues ANALYSIS: Cam Bedrosian was the latest closer to go down.

RotoBaller 8 years agoJoaquin Benoit (RP, PHI) - Closers and Saves Waiver Adds
BALLER MOVE: Add in All Saves Leagues OWNED IN: 15% of Yahoo Leagues ANALYSIS: Surprise surprise, the thin ice that Jeanmar Gomez was tip-toeing around on cracked rather quickly.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10-12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 47% of Yahoo Leagues ANALYSIS: Last call on Travis Shaw.

BALLER MOVE: Add in Most Saves Leagues OWNED IN: 27% of Yahoo Leagues ANALYSIS: Sam Dyson blew the save chance tonight against the Indians, giving up a grand slam to Francisco Lindor. His final stat line ended up being five earned runs, with three hits and two walks. Not good, especially after losing the same for the Rangers on Opening Day. That's […]
