Are you following @Rotoprofessor on Twitter? If not you should be, as we Tweet out all the important bullpen notes every morning from the previous day’s games. Who is in jeopardy of losing their job? 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):
PHI: Taking committee approach, Hunter opened 9th, but nearly coughed up the game (2 R/2 H/0.1 IP). Dominguez entered, King both batters he faced (did have WP allowing R to score) for SV. He has SV on back-to-back says & could finally emerge w/role #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers

SF: Melancon works 8th (1 H/1 K) before Dyson suffers BSV/L (2 R/2 H). Don't be surprised if Melancon is given next opp, w/Moronta also a candidate & worth stashing if you have the room #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers

MIN: Rodney suffers 4th BSV allowing 1 R/1 H/2 BB. Clearly didn't have control (17 of 35 pitches for strikes) but considering 1st BSV since 4/26 it's of little concern today (tho we'll watch, given his history, w/Hildenberger “next up”) #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers

HOU: Devenski (2 H) pitches 8th w/Rondon (1 H/3 K) getting SV. Latter clearly remains the favorite for SV, at least for now, but don't be surprised to see an alternative acquired ahead of deadline #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers

OAK: The combination of Trivino (perfect IP/2 K) & Treinen (1 BB/1 K) once again do the job. Trivino, who now owns a 1.59 ERA, 39 K and 13 BB over 34.0 IP, has emerged as clear "nest up" in case of a trade prior to the deadline #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers

MIL: Knebel delivers SV (2 K/1 BB) & is finally finding footing (2+ K in 6 of past 7). He won't see every opp, thanks to the presence of Hader, but he'll get most of them & will likely finish year as Top 10 option #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers

COL: Ottavino charged w/BSV (2 R/2 H/3 BB) but ultimately gets W w/Davis picking up SV (perfect IP/1 K). Latter has had some recent bumps, but appears back on tract w/3 straight near perfect outings (1 H/0 BB/5 K) #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers

CHC: Nice to see Morrow get on the mound, even if it's brief (0.1 IP/1 H). Consider him right back in the closers role & safe to have in all lineups #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers

CWS: Fry gets 8th & delivers (perfect IP on just 8 pitches). He owns a 1.88 ERA & 31 K over 24.0 IP and should get an opportunity if Soria is dealt prior to the deadline #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers

BOS: Another lights out performance from Kimbrel (3 K/1 BB/SV). He's now 24-for-26 in SV opps to go along w/a 2.16 ERA, 0.87 WHIP and 49 K over 33.1 IP. What's not to love? #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers

SEA: w/both Colome & Diaz given day off, it was Nicasio who picked up SV. Doesn't mean much, of course, as 99% of opps will go to the Top 2. #MLB #FantasyBaseball #closers
