Joe Jimenez Emerging As Holds Candidate
7 years agoDetroit Tigers reliever Joe Jimenez has been outstanding in the first few weeks of the regular season. With Tuesday's three-strikeout performance in the mix, the highly-touted youngster has now made eight appearances and has yet to allow a run. In 7 2/3 innings of work, Jimenez also has seven strikeouts and just two walks. He won't get many save opportunities, as that role is held firmly by closer Shane Greene. But if you're looking to improve your ratios overall or if you play in a holds league, then Jimenez is someone you should look at on the waiver wire.
