Alex Colome With Another Save Tuesday Versus The White Sox
7 years agoTampa Bay Rays closer Alex Colome recorded a save Tuesday versus Chicago. He gave up a home run that brought the lead down to a single run but would close out the game to preserve the win and earn a save. It was the second straight game with a save. Colome recorded an MLB-leading 47 saves in 2017, but his overall numbers elsewhere weren't as impressive as his 2016 campaign. His strikeout and walk rates both went in the wrong direction, and his ERA jumped up more than a full run to 3.24 from 1.90 in 2016. He still should be owned in all leagues where saves are a category. He saved 84 games between 2016-17 while only blowing nine chances.
