Clay Holmes Unavailable On Monday
3 months agoNew York Yankees manager Aaron Boone said he's unsure who would be his closer on Monday night against the hosting Chicago White Sox with closer Clay Holmes unavailable after Sunday's heavy workload. "We'll see," Boone said. Holmes threw 45 pitches to pick up a four-out save in Sunday's win over the visiting Texas Rangers, so fantasy managers will want to put the 31-year-old veteran on their bench to kick off the new week. If a save situation arises on Monday night, the most likely candidates for a save opportunity in Chicago will be Tommy Kahnle or Luke Weaver. After resting on Monday, Holmes should be available for a save chance as early as Tuesday. He was an All-Star for the second time in his career this year and has already recorded a career-high 25 saves while posting a 2.81 ERA, 1.31 WHIP and 24.6% strikeout rate in 48 innings out of the 'pen.
