4 years agoSan Diego Padres closer Mark Melancon shut down the Milwaukee Brewers in extra innings Wednesday to collect his 17th save. Assisted with some savvy defense from second baseman Jake Cronenworth, Melancon navigated around the runner on second and a hit to secure the 2-1 victory. The 36-year-old continues his phenomenal 2021 campaign, leading the majors in saves and rocking a 0.81 ERA and 0.81 WHIP with a 22 percent strikeout rate. Only two months through the season, the veteran right-hander has already returned excess value as a fantasy lottery jackpot this offseason.--Andrew Le - RotoBaller
