Brad Boxberger Grabs Second Save
2 years agoChicago Cubs right-handed pitcher Brad Boxberger secured his second save of the season by shutting down the San Diego Padres on Thursday, closing out a 5-2 victory. Boxberger came in for the ninth and walked the leadoff hitter, but then coaxed a double play ball and a fly out to end the game. Boxberger has been mostly solid for the Cubs, and now holds a 3.60 ERA and 1.20 WHIP. They are not elite numbers, but they're good enough that he should continue to see save opportunities with Michael Fulmer now clearly out of the picture. He should be added in any leagues where saves are valuable.
