Closer Watch

Dodgers – Maybe no fantasy owner believes in Brandon League, but Don Mattingly sure does. League collected the save Monday and has an incredibly terrifying 9:5 K:BB over 19.1 innings to go with an ERA and WHIP that only a mother could love. The deeper stats say League's arguably been even worse than his numbers, and there certainly aren't many extreme pitch-to-contact closers like him. Meanwhile, Kenley Jansen is a stud closer waiting to happen and everyone knows it… except that he essentially never gets any save chances.

Diamondbacks – Heath Bell entered with the bases loaded, one out and a five-run lead in the ninth inning of Game 1 of Monday's doubleheader; because the tying run was on deck, it was an official save chance, and he "earned" the save by giving up two hits to score all his inherited baserunners, then locking it down. Bell's been far from untouchable, but he hasn't been blowing saves either. J.J. Putz is still a ways off; speculators should look in the direction of David Hernandez or Brad Ziegler in case Bell really falters.

Cubs -- More job security for Kevin Gregg, as Kyuji Fujikawa heads back to the DL. Not that Gregg's needed it; he's given up just a lone unearned run in 13.1 innings with a 13:5 K:BB and six unblemished saves. Unfortunately, the Cubs haven't won since May 18 and haven't had a save chance for Gregg since May 12 -- more than two weeks ago.

Other Recent Recommendations: Joe Smith, Leonys Martin, Kevin Gausman, Bronson Arroyo, Rick Porcello
