Joe Barlow Tagged With Loss On Thursday
3 years agoTexas Rangers relief pitcher Joe Barlow appears to be the favorite for save chances down the stretch. On Thursday, Barlow got through a scoreless 10th inning and appeared locked in. Sadly, that changed in the 11th when Ty France hit a go-ahead two-run home run off Barlow. He was given the loss in what was a hard fought 9-8 defeat to the Seattle Mariners. Despite losing this one, Barlow is expected to remain the closer in Texas. Fantasy managers should be able to trust him since he's posting a 1.08 ERA this season. Sadly, the Rangers don't do a lot of winning, so we'll see how many save chance he actually receives.
