7 years agoMilwaukee Brewers relief pitcher Jeremy Jeffress pitched one inning only giving up one walk while striking out one in the 5-3 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates on Saturday. Jeffress has surprisingly been one a beyond elite fantasy relief option as he's now pitched 14 consecutive scoreless appearances and hasn't given up a run since April 6. In this very impressive season thus far, he's only given up nine hits, one run, and five walks in 18 2/3 innings pitched with 14 strikeouts. He also now holds a 0.48 ERA and a 0.75 WHIP this year as well. Despite picking up two saves on May 1 and 2, he won't be a reliable source for saves. However, he is a very solid add in fantasy for players in need of a reliever who can put up good ratios and is a must-own in holds formats right now.--Caden Inaba
