Who is worth the speculative add? Here are this morning tweets (Please note we won’t be posting these on the website every day, so make sure you follow @Rotoprofessor to ensure you don’t miss a thing):
SF: Casilla didn’t get BSV but only because pulled before completely blew game (2 R/0.1 IP). Committee is coming #FantasyBaseball #closers
— Rotoprofessor (@Rotoprofessor) September 8, 2016
PIT: Watson bounces back w/perfect IP for SV. Doesn’t mean was impressive inning & healthy Feliz could take role #FantasyBaseball #closers

MIN: Kintzler gets SV but struggles (1 R/2 H). w/R allowed in 4 of 5, hard to envision him keeping role for long #FantasyBaseball #closers

ATL: Johnson struggles in non-SV (2.0 IP/1 R/4 H). Since not future, chance Cabrera gets look before year over #FantasyBaseball #closers

CWS: Robertson w/SV but shaky again (1 H/1 BB). Role safe, but 1.40 WHIP overall & only 1 clean IP since 8/20 #FantasyBaseball #closers

TB: Colome w/much needed clean IP for SV. At no real risk, though given team history doesn’t mean job his for ’17 #FantasyBaseball #closers

CLE: Miller gives up R in second straight, w/Allen getting SV. Do we now have clarity? Not yet but could be soon #FantasyBaseball #closers
— Rotoprofessor (@Rotoprofessor) September 8, 2016
NYY: w/Betances getting day off it’s Clippard who gets SV. No surprise he’s next up but not likely to get many opp #FantasyBaseball #closers

Can’t help but think Severino becomes a BP fixture of this last month
Definitely possible, though I’m not sure the team is going to just give up on him as a starter either (considering how big of a need they have there going forward).
by fixture, I meant late innings… Not closer, but next in line to bettances
I understand, but I think next up is going to be Clippard regardless of what Severino does. He needs to prove he can work multiple days in a row, much like Iglesias in Cincinnati
