    • Craig Kimbrel earns save after near-miss homer
      Craig KImbrel picked up his 11th save with a perfect ninth against the White Sox on Friday.

      Advice: Sort of perfect anyway, given that it took Colton Cowser robbing Tommy Pham of a homer to end the game. Still, even if that ball had managed to get over Cowser’s glove in center, Kimbrel did have another run to play with. It goes as Kimbrel’s sixth straight hitless and walkless appearance.

    • Slams door for save
      Kimbrel struck out one batter in a perfect inning and earned a save over the White Sox on Friday.

      Advice: Kimbrel needed just six pitches to finish off a 6-4 victory in quick fashion. After a shaky stretch, he's riding a 5.2-inning scoreless streak. During that span, he's gone 1-0 with three saves and two holds. The veteran closer dropped his ERA to 3.32 and has converted 11 of his 14 saves this season. Rotowire.com Friday, 8:53 pm
       
    • Edwin Díaz works scoreless seventh inning
      Edwin Díaz pitched a scoreless seventh inning on Friday against the Giants. He allowed one hit, struck out one batter, and earned a hold.

      Advice: The Mets’ closer role is fully in flux with Díaz’s struggles and Reed Garrett allowing a go-ahead grand slam to Patrick Bailey on Friday. It was nice to see Díaz pitch a reasonably clean inning, but Jorge Soler put one to the warning track and his command was still shaky. Keep an eye on his usage, especially if the Mets ever do win a game. Rotoworld Friday, 7:27 pm

    • Grabs 10th save
      Kimbrel picked up the save Thursday, getting the final two outs in an 8-6 victory over the White Sox.

      Advice: Jonathan Heasley stayed in the game to start the ninth inning with the O's ahead 8-2 after getting the last out in the eighth, though he would quickly run into trouble after failing to retire the first four batters he faced in the final frame. He would be relieved by Yennier Cano, but Cano allowed three inherited runners to score while getting only one out, making it an 8-6 ballgame. That's when Kimbrel came in to save the day, needing just two pitches to record a bizarre double play as Andrew Vaughn was called out for runner's interference on an infield fly. The veteran reliever has converted all three of his save attempts this month after blowing back-to-back saves to close out April. Kimbrel also hasn't allowed any hits or walks in those three appearances with five strikeouts. Rotowire.com Friday, 6:52 am
       
    • Kimbrel picks up 10th save Thursday
      Craig Kimbrel picked up the save against the White Sox on Thursday.

      Advice: With the bases loaded and a five-run lead in the ninth inning, Orioles manager Brandon Hyde went to Yennier Cano for what was an unconventional save opportunity. Cano hit Andrew Vaughn and allowed a two run single to Gavin Sheets to make it a two-run game. After striking out Zach DeLoach, Cano was removed in favor of Kimbrel, who got Andrew Benintendi to pop into a double play. The save was Kimbrel’s 10th of the season and his third since returning to the closer’s role. Rotoworld Thursday, 8:06 pm
