Cincinnati Reds closer Raisel Iglesias was pulled early from a save chance on Monday. He got two outs in the eighth and the first out in the ninth inning before giving way to Michael Lorenzen, who wound up earning the save in the eventual 3-2 win over the Houston Astros. Iglesias did not allow a run in the outing, although he did walk two batters. Part of Iglesias' control issues may have stemmed from the fact he hadn't pitched since June 11. Iglesias did not appear to be unhappy about being pulled after the game, telling reporters, “I feel really happy because we won the game. That’s the most important thing here is just to win the game. I wasn’t surprised at all. My command wasn’t good enough because I spent many days without pitching." Iglesias now has a 2.97 ERA, 1.42 WHIP, 13 saves, and 40 strikeouts in 30 1/3 innings of work. He remains the team's closer despite leaving early on Monday.--Matt T - RotoBaller

Atlanta Braves closer Raisel Iglesias picked up his fifth save of the season in Monday's 6-3 win over the Rockies. Iglesias entered to pitch the bottom of the ninth inning up by three. He got the first two outs on a fly-out and a line-out, allowed a double, and ended the game with a strikeout. The 35-year-old veteran has been inconsistent so far this season, converting five of seven save opportunities with a 5.73 ERA, an 8.18 K/9 rate, and a 1.64 BB/9 rate in 11 innings of work. He has split save opportunities over the last seven days with Dylan Lee, who converted one of two with a 0.00 ERA. While Lee has pitched well this season, Iglesias has a long track record of being a higher-end closer, so he will likely be given some leash to get things back on track.--Connelly Doan - RotoBaller

Atlanta Braves right-hander Raisel Iglesias got the final three outs of a 7-5 win over the Philadelphia Phillies on Tuesday to earn his first save of the season. Iglesias worked around a walk to preserve the win over Philadelphia in what was his second save chance of the season. The veteran closer has now made three appearances for the Braves this year, posting a 3.00 ERA, 0-1 record, and three strikeouts over that span. The Braves are off to a surprisingly poor 2-8 start, which has not afforded Iglesias many save chances, but he should remain a solid closing option in fantasy moving forward.--Matt T - RotoBaller

Atlanta Braves closer Raisel Iglesias had a night to forget Sunday, allowing five runs in just two-thirds of an inning in a 9-2 loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers. Iglesias came into the game in the ninth with the score tied but promptly allowed four hits and a walk while recording just two outs before exiting. It's been an excellent season for the veteran closer, but this comes at a very tough time for both the Braves and his fantasy managers. Still, on the whole, he has been one of the best relievers in baseball with his ERA at 1.87 and his WHIP at 0.72, even after this dismal appearance. He should be drafted as one of the first relievers off the board next season.--Matt Garon - RotoBaller

Atlanta Braves closer Raisel Iglesias threw a perfect ninth inning to preserve a 3-2 win over the Philadelphia Phillies on Thursday. Iglesias struck out all three batters he faced in this one, making easy work of one of the best lineups in baseball. The 34-year-old has been almost untouchable this year, going 27-for-29 in save opportunities while pitching to a microscopic 1.45 ERA and 0.62 WHIP. Iglesias hasn't allowed a run since June 16, a span of 23 IP. The veteran righty is one of the best closers in the game.--Matt Garon - RotoBaller
