John Schreiber Stats

Boston Red Sox relief pitcher John Schreiber walked none and struck out two in 1 2/3 scoreless and hitless innings in his Grapefruit League outing on Saturday against the Minnesota Twins. The 29-year-old right-hander faced five batters in his most recent spring outing. In his second season in Boston last year, Schreiber had a career-best 2.22 ERA (2.50 FIP), 0.98 WHIP, 22 holds his first eight career saves and a career-high 74 strikeouts in 65 innings over 64 relief appearances. He's not in line for regular save chances with Kenley Jansen in town, but Schreiber should be plenty relevant in leagues that reward points for holds.

Boston Red Sox reliever John Schreiber picked up his fourth save of the season on Thursday, retiring the last six batters of the ballgame to preserve a 4-3 win over the Orioles. The right-hander allowed just one single over his two frames of work while striking out two, tossing 17 of his 25 pitches for strikes. With Tanner Houck on the injured list, Schreiber could be in line for more save opportunities since he owns a stellar 1.80 ERA and 0.81 WHIP with a 51/9 K/BB through 45 IP.

Boston Red Sox relief pitcher John Schreiber closed out the team's 4-0 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays on Monday to earn his third save of the year. He pitched the final 1 2/3 innings of the game and retired each of the five batters he faced, tallying one strikeout along the way. The team's primary closer, Tanner Houck, had pitched on both Saturday and Sunday so he was likely unavailable for Monday's contest. Houck is 6-for-6 in save chances since taking on the role in early June, so he's done nothing to lose his ninth inning role. However, Schreiber has been the team's most impressive reliever by most measures this year. He owns a 0.66 ERA and a 0.66 WHIP over 27.1 innings. He's compiled 15 holds and he's 3-for-3 in save chances. He's the reliever to look for if Houck stumbles or suffers an injury.
