The Case for Punting Saves Midseason
Over the first eight weeks of the 2017 season, 14 teams underwent a change in the closer’s role, whether as a result of injury or ineffectiveness.

MLB Closers and Saves Report - Week 9
Another quiet week in the world of bullpens, and few fantasy owners will complain about that. After a whirlwind of moves to start the season that lasted through most of April and May, it's been oddly comforting to have two weeks straight where bullpens allow us to relax. But, as always, it wasn't a completely quiet week, […]
Week 9 Waiver Wire: Catchers
Once again, it seems like catchers have about as much forward momentum, stat-wise, as Buster Posey did when he rushed out to protect Hunter Strickland after Bryce Harper charged the mound.

Week 9 Waiver Wire - Starting Pitchers
Two months are (basically) in the books and we are officially off of the rails here. Mike Trout is injured, Bryce Harper’s suspended and every single pitcher is just one sneeze away from a DL stint.
