Brandon Workman Earns Eighth Save Of Season
4 years agoPhiladelphia Phillies relief pitcher Brandon Workman pitched a scoreless ninth inning to earn his eighth save of the season Wednesday vs the Nationals. Workman recorded the first two outs of the inning with ease but, allowed the next two batters to reach base bringing the tying run to the plate; he got Luis Garcia to ground out, however, to preserve the win. Workman has some walk issues and his 2.14 WHIP is an eyesore for any pitcher, especially a closer. That could lead him into trouble at some point but for now he is the closer in Philadelphia and should be owned and started in fantasy leagues that reward saves.
