Yennier Cano Collects Save No. 5
1 year agoBaltimore Orioles right-hander Yennier Cano pitched a perfect inning to earn the save in Saturday's 5-4 win over the Colorado Rockies. Baltimore's closer Felix Bautista (elbow) was placed on the 15-day injured list Saturday with a UCL injury. Cano got the first crack at the Orioles' first save opportunity. He entered the game in the ninth inning to protect a one-run lead. The 29-year-old retired all three batters he faced to earn his fifth save of the season. Cano has converted 5-of-6 save opportunities with a 1.60 ERA, 0.97 WHIP<, and a 67:10 K: BB across 62 innings in 2023. Fantasy managers searching for saves should add Cano in all league formats, as he will be Baltimore's primary closer while Bautista is sidelined.
