Bruce Rondon (RP, DET)
He's baaack! The Tigers bullpen has been a mess all year. Rondon, the 'closer of the future' has been called up once and demoted a few days later. He is definitely a work in progress and Leyland went on record Friday and said Rondon will not be used to close games. Not yet. There is […]
Koji Uehara (RP, BOS)
Uehara has taken the reigns in Boston's bullpen and righted the sinking ship that Andrew Bailey left behind. In the past 3 days, he's thrown 3 perfect IP with 6 Ks, racking up 3 saves. He's only 52% owned in Yahoo! leagues which just crazy. Pick him up immediately if you need saves or pitching […]
Fantasy Baseball Advice: Week 13 Closer Update - Nailz
Yeoman’s Work Before I get into my normal article about the wonderful world of closers, I wanted to take a few moments to write about a pitcher that I am completely enamored with and that is the one and only Jose Fernandez. I am in a 16-team, roto, auction-style keeper league and I was very […]
Jaoquin Benoit, RP, DET
Benoit closed out the Rays on Friday night with a 2K inning, locking down his 5th save of the year. Benoit is settling into the DET closer role nicely and should be owned in all leagues if you're in need of saves. Add him immediately.

Fantasy Baseball Advice: Week 12 Closer Update - Mark it Zero
Yeoman’s Work There are some fantasy draft experts that believe a good strategy for drafting closers is to pay very little on draft day, or even to completely abandon the idea of drafting closers altogether, in the hopes of picking a few up via free agency during the first weeks and months of the season. […]
Arizona Diamondbacks' Josh Collmenter: Savior of The Bullpen
The Arizona Diamondbacks have started off great in 2013, and they're surprising people by how well they've played, even through sustained injuries to key players like Eric Chavez, Aaron Hill and Adam Eaton.

Fantasy Baseball Advice: Week 11 Closer Update - It's all Uphill from Here
Yeoman’s Work Dealing with closers can be very frustrating at times, especially if you're the owner of a closer that is about to lose his job. What can be more frustrating is to trying to predict which closer is next to go, whether it is because of injury or pure ineffectiveness, but hey-- that's why […]
Fantasy Baseball Advice: Week 10 Closer Update
Yeoman’s Work In Week 10, I am going to take another trip around the MLB and dig deeper into some more bullpens and their so-called “closers.” As savvy veteran fantasy owners, we get very upset when our closer (or any closer, really) blows a save. How can a starting pitcher throw 7-8 scoreless innings only […]
Fantasy Baseball Advice: NL West Closer Situations in Flux
A couple of closers hit the shelf Saturday night in what shouldn't be considered shocking news. But what is somewhat surprising is that we haven't yet seen significant transaction trends to add their replacements. Regardless of the cause for this delayed reaction, an opportunity exists for alert fantasy owners to capitalize in 75-80% of leagues. […]
