7 years agoIn light of the news that Toronto Blue Jays closer Roberto Osuna was placed on administrative leave due to his arrest for assault on Tuesday, the fantasy community has been scrambling to find who will replace him in the ninth-inning role. According to manager John Gibbons, there won’t be one set person as the team’s closer, and the game will dictate who is used at what points. That’s all well and good, but we commonly see one guy eventually become the leader in the pack when these situations happen. Ryan Tepera seems like the best choice, and he owns a 2.70 ERA and 9.7 K/9 this season. Hopefully Toronto will have a lead in the ninth inning on Tuesday, so we can learn pretty quickly who the first choice truly is. Seunghwan Oh and Tyler Clippard are other options for the Blue Jays.--John Smith
