BALLER MOVE: Add in all SVHLD Leagues
OWNED IN: 14% of Fleaflicker Leagues
ANALYSIS: The Mets have seemed to figure out their hitting issues they had earlier this year and they also have a firm grip on the strength that is their rotation. But who would have ever thought that Addison Reed would be a true solution to the team's bullpen issues? That is exactly what Reed has become in his short time in New York.
Reed has transformed into the 7th inning option for New York and he has not disappointed thusfar. As the bridge between the rotation and the late inning combo of Tyler Clippard and Jeurys Familia, Reed has been the rock solid reliever that he was back in Chicago. His ERA over the past month is below 1.50 but he compiled 6 HLD along with a K/BB ratio of 7.50 and a K/9 of 9.88.
Even though the K are down overall his HR/9 are also down by .6 on the season and his GB% is near 43% which is 8% above his career average. The FIP of 2.76 shows that Reed simply had some control issues and kept leaving the ball up too much and it cost him his late inning gig. Reed has found a home and in leagues where HLD are counted Reed is an asset. But if you are looking for someone to help you in ERA, WHIP and get you a cheap SV here and there, Reed is a must have.
