ANALYSIS: Alright, yes. We know. He's a Rays reliever. So how much faith can you have that J.P. Feyereisen will continue to see save opportunities going forward? The answer to that question is a loaded one, so let's just go off of the facts we have in front of us.

Feyereisen has earned the team's last four save opportunities and has converted three of four. His only blown save with the team came last Wednesday and the team didn't get away from him as he went on to convert two straight saves after that game.

Statistically, Feyereisen has been extremely impressive this year. He has a 1.29 ERA and a 0.86 WHIP over seven innings with the Rays. Over the season, he ranks in the 98th percentile in whiff rate (40%) and in the 92nd percentile in xBA (.182).

Fellow relievers Andrew Kittredge, Pete Fairbanks and Diego Castillo are all in the saves picture for the Rays as well. Kittredge and Fairbanks have been equally as good as Feyereisen this year, but have a total of just three saves combined on the year as they are typically used in setup roles. Castillo was the team's primary closer for the first month of the year, but he has only received one save opportunity (which he converted) since being activated from the injured list in mid-May. Castillo also has the worst surface numbers of the group (3.05 ERA, 1.21 WHIP).

Feyereisen is a must-add in all leagues out of pure speculation. The Rays are sitting at 36-22 and look to be on the verge of providing ample save opportunities going forward. Even if Feyereisen only sees around 60% of the save opportunities, he'll provide some solid value. He's especially enticing in rotisserie and head-to-head categories leagues where he can help out in ratios even if he's not saving games regularly.
