Antone is the lead dog for leverage scenarios, but I see nothing about his recent usage pattern that suggests "main guy for saves."
he might vulture you a win to go with the save here and there plus he is pitching well, so worth owning as an across-the-board play, though.
UPDATE: Antone got the SV today (see other thread), though it wasn't pretty.
Givens had a shot at one for COL, but a PB tied it, he left, and a WP by Sheffield brought home another UER for COL. I don't see Bard (day off) or Givens locked into any MLB job in 2022 at the rate they're going yet little there. maybe Sheffield as a longterm play.
both pens come with an UNSAFE AT ANY SPEED sticker - COL because no good RPs and CIN because of a very confused, overmatched MGR (who may only have 1 good arm)Last edited by Judge Jude; 05-16-2021, 06:24 PM.finished 10th in this 37th yr in 11-team-only NL 5x5

today he appeared in the 4th with 2 on and allowed both inherited runners to score to make it an 8-1 deficit.
I "put Doolittle down" yesterday - he pitched the 7th tonight with the Reds down 8-4 - and am so glad I did.
wait until the Reds fire their imbecile manager before fishing in that pond.....Originally posted by Judge Jude View PostAntone is the lead dog for leverage scenarios, but I see nothing about his recent usage pattern that suggests "main guy for saves."

I likely will claim Hembree tomorrow.
a decent "combo" guy - might either have the job, sort of, now and it's not impossible that he closes in 2022.
not likely, of course. but saying there's a chance. not a lot of competition there, and could Antone be a starter in disguise?finished 10th in this 37th yr in 11-team-only NL 5x5

Karinchak struck out 16.4 K/9 in the minors, 17.0 his first couple "years" in mlb, and he is at 16.8 K/9 this year. There's no sample size issue here with his dominance, he's doing exactly what he's always done.
Similarly Clase has always been an 8-10K guy on every stop.
