John Schreiber Earns Second Save Of Season
3 months agoKansas City Royals relief pitcher John Schreiber picked up his second save of the season in Monday's 5-3 win over the Angels. Schreiber entered the game to pitch the top of the ninth inning up by two. He allowed a leadoff single, induced a groundball double play, and ended the game on a line-out. The Royals have only seen four save opportunities in the last 15 days, with half of them going to Lucas Erceg. Erceg pitched 1 2/3 innings in Sunday's game, so Schreiber got the call in the ninth on Monday. The 30-year-old now owns a 4.02 ERA with two of five save opportunities converted, a 7.11 K/9 rate, and a 3.08 BB/9 rate. Erceg still seems like the arm to roster for fantasy managers unless Schreiber continues to see high-leverage situations.
