Adam Ottavino News
Boston Red Sox relief pitcher Adam Ottavino got four outs against the Seattle Mariners Wednesday, striking out two batters without allowing a baserunner. He now has a 7-3 record on the year to go with 20 holds, 11 saves, a 3.68 ERA, a 1.36 WHIP, and 67 strikeouts in 58 2/3 innings. Since Matt Barnes was removed from the closer role, the back end of the Boston bullpen has been wide open. While Ottavino may seemingly have the inside track on most opportunities, he's best not to be relied upon except in leagues that also reward holds, as Garrett Whitlock, Hansel Robles, and other have also seen save chances.
Boston Red Sox relief pitcher Adam Ottavino saved his 11th game of the season Wednesday, setting down the three Tampa Bay Rays he faced in order with two strikeouts. With Matt Barnes removed from the closer role temporarily, and now out with COVID, Ottavino is the clear top option in the Boston bullpen. He should be added in all formats, with the caveat that Barnes could reclaim the role down the line. Ottavino has a 3.48 ERA, 1.38 WHIP, and 58 strikeouts in 53 innings, so he's far from a perfect option.
Boston Red Sox relief pitcher Adam Ottavino recorded a save for the second consecutive day Saturday, bringing him to 10 on the year. He allowed one hit and struck out one batter in two-thirds of an inning. In his last seven games, Ottavino has a 1.50 ERA, but has walked seven batters and recorded a 2.00 WHIP, meaning some negative regression could be on the way. Still, he appears to be the closer for the time being, so he's worth an add in all fantasy leagues even as he's likely to rest for a day or two after consecutive outings.
