Roenis Elias Shuts Down Cardinals For 11th Save
5 years agoSeattle Mariners reliever Roenis Elias collected his 11th save of the season in Tuesday's 5-4 win over the Cardinals. His only blemish was serving up a one-out double to Dexter Fowler, but he capped off the scoreless frame by striking out a pair and getting a groundout to end the game. Elias has been lights out in the ninth inning, going 11-for-12 in save opportunities, but he did take the loss in a non-save situation last week against the Astros. He holds a respectable 3.46 ERA and 40 punchouts in 39.0 innings this season, and should be owned in deeper mixed leagues for the fact that he's receiving all the save opportunities in Seattle.
