Giovanny Gallegos Picks Up 11th Save
2 years agoSt. Louis Cardinals reliever Giovanny Gallegos recorded his 11th save of the season on Saturday to close out his club's 1-0 win over the Yankees. Ryan Helsley, who's taken over primary closing duties, worked the previous two days in a row so it was Gallegos who received the ninth-inning call in this one. The right-hander got a fly out and a pair of strikeouts in the clean frame in what marked his first save since July 12. After a rocky July, Gallegos has strung together six-straight scoreless appearances to give him a 3.27 ERA and 1.06 WHIP with 52 K through 41 1/3 IP. Although his stats would hold up for fantasy purposes, the fact that he isn't the main closing option significantly hinders his fantasy value.
