Jeremy Jeffress Picks Up Another Save
4 years agoChicago Cubs relief pitcher Jeremy Jeffress picked up his second save of the season in the second game of a doubleheader on Monday against the St. Louis Cardinals. Rowan Wick who had seen the last couple of Cubs saves pitched in Game 1 and Jeffress answered the call in Game 2. Craig Kimbrel came into the season as the Cubs closer, but struggled early on and Wick and Jeffress have been had save opportunities in the meantime. Kimbrel has thrown two scoreless inning in his last two appearances and could find his way back in the closer role, but for now it looks like Rowan Wick is the manager David Ross’s preferred option with Jeffress as the next man up. Jeffress and Wick are both worth owning while the Cubs figure out their bullpen.
