Cody Allen Demoted From Closer Role
6 years agoLos Angeles Angels closer Cody Allen has been removed from the closer role. Allen has saved four games for the Angels so far this season but has done so with a 5.40 ERA and a WHIP of 1.56. Considering those rate stats, Allen wasn’t providing any real fantasy value outside of a few saves, so there is certainly no reason to keep him on your roster now in shallow leagues. Expect Ty Buttrey and Hansel Robles to get the save opportunities going forward in Anaheim. Buttrey is the one to target in deeper leagues if you're chasing saves.
