The Boston Red Sox reinstated closer Kenley Jansen (illness) from the COVID injured list on Saturday and optioned pitcher Zack Weiss to Triple-A Worcester in a corresponding move. Jansen will return to Boston's bullpen for the first time since testing positive for COVID on Sept. 13. He'll have just over a week left to pick up some save opportunities for fantasy managers still playing for a title, but the Red Sox could ease him back into the fold, especially since he had given up five runs in his previous five appearances before going on the shelf. The 35-year-old veteran right-hander hasn't recorded a save since Aug. 20 and has a 3.63 ERA, 1.28 WHIP, 29 saves and 52 strikeouts in 44 2/3 innings this year over 51 outings out of the 'pen.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller

Los Angeles Angels right-hander Kenley Jansen tossed a scoreless ninth inning to preserve a 4-3 win over the Tampa Bay Rays on Tuesday. Jansen made things interesting in the frame, working around two walks while notching two strikeouts, to earn his third save in as many chances in the early portion of the season. Overall, the veteran closer has yet to allow an earned run over five innings of work this year while striking out six. He will look to continue his strong start to the season for an Angels team that has been a pleasant surprise with a 7-3 record in the early going.--Matt T - RotoBaller

Los Angeles Angels reliever Kenley Jansen allowed one walk while striking out two over a scoreless inning to earn the save in Saturday's 1-0 win over the Chicago White Sox. Jansen entered the ninth inning to protect a one-run lead. The veteran right-hander needed 19 pitches to notch his first save with the Angels this season. Jansen signed a one-year, $10 million contract with the Angels this offseason to be the team's primary closer. The 37-year-old notched 27 saves with Boston last season while posting a 3.29 ERA and 1.06 WHIP. Jansen is currently fourth on the all-time list for saves with 448 and is only 31 saves away from surpassing Lee Smith for third all-time.--Brad Camara - RotoBaller

Los Angeles Angels relief pitcher Kenley Jansen (shoulder) is scheduled to make his spring training debut against the Athletics on Saturday. Jansen missed the end of last season due to shoulder inflammation, but it wasn't expected to be an issue heading into the 2025 season. Jansen signed a one-year deal with the Angels over the offseason. The assumption is that Jansen will operate as the closer given he's 32 saves away from passing Lee Smith for third in all time in career save. Ben Joyce will likely operate as the set-up man and learn behind Jansen before taking over as the closer of the future in Los Angeles.--Andy Webb - RotoBaller

According to Jon Heyman of the New York Post, relief pitcher Kenley Jansen has agreed to a one-year, $10 million contract with the Los Angeles Angels on Tuesday. Jansen has spent the last two seasons with the Boston Red Sox after a brief stint with the Atlanta Braves and a long tenure with the Los Angeles Dodgers. Last season, Jansen posted a 3.29 ERA and a 1.06 WHIP across 54 2/3 innings. He struck out 62 batters and tallied 27 saves. He ended the season on the injured list with a shoulder injury but is not expected to be limited during spring training. He posted a below-average 9.2 percent walk rate but was able to limit hard contact with a strong 37.0 percent hard-hit rate. He also generated a 3.24 xERA and a .208 xBA, which placed him in the 82nd and 86th percentile, respectively. He has tallied at least 25 saves in each of the past four seasons. Joining the Angels, fantasy managers should expect Jansen to operate as the top ninth-inning option, which will move Ben Joyce to a setup role.--Andy Smith - RotoBaller
