Neil Ramirez (RP, CHC) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues (that value saves)

ANALYSIS: Neil Ramirez is the latest Cubs reliever to rack up some saves, immediately making him a viable waiver wire pickup and another in the list of saves sleepers for fantasy baseball. This afternoon Ramirez nailed down the save for the Cubs, his second in 3 days as he also picked up the save on Friday night. It seems like Hector Rondon may have been removed from the role, although he has pretty solid numbers this year and is nursing a sore elbow, so it may just be a temporary thing. Either way, if you're looking for some saves go grab Ramirez now - just in case this change sticks. Ramirez is only owned in 7% of Yahoo leagues, so he's widely available. Ramirez has also been filthy this year, with numbers even better than Rondon, so he may be a long term option for saves in Chicago. He's racked up a 1.13 ERA, 0.81 WHIP and a whopping 26 K in 16 IP heading into today, so it'll be interesting to see how this plays out once Rondon is back on the mound. For now, go get on it!
