ANALYSIS: Fernando Rodney is a perfect 8-for-8 in save opportunities this season. He is yet to allow an earned run in 12 innings of work. His 9.8 K/9 average is one full strikeout above his career mark. He is the undisputed closer in San Diego, with no real threat looming to overtake him. So, why isn't he 100% owned?
Some fantasy owners may be leery of Rodney's recent past, as he posted a 5.68 ERA in Seattle last season before being traded. Still, it was only the year before that Rodney was an All-Star who finished 2014 with 48 saves and a 2.85 ERA. At 39, he's no spring chicken, but he is still a more than serviceable reliever. Unless he suddenly proves otherwise, Rodney is a dependable closer who is getting the job done.
