Lou Trivino Stats

Oakland Athletics relief pitcher Lou Trivino pitched 1 1/3 scoreless innings to earn the win on Friday versus the Royals. Trivino was called on to get out of a jam left by co-closer Jake Diekman in the eighth inning. Trivino escaped the inning and followed that up with a scoreless ninth to preserve the tie and pick up the win when Oakland walked off in the bottom of the inning. This outing makes it 11 of his last 12 appearances where Trivino has not allowed an earned run. Manager Bob Melvin likes to play the matchups with the righty Trivino and the lefty Diekman, using both in high-leverage situations. Both pitchers should be rostered in fantasy leagues that reward saves.

Oakland Athletics relief pitcher Lou Trivino pitched a scoreless ninth inning to earn his eighth save of the season Saturday at the Rockies. Trivino allowed a hit and picked up a strikeout to preserve a 6-3 win for the visitors. At this point, manager Bob Melvin has made it apparent he doesn't have one, clear-cut closer as Trivino and Jake Diekman each have at least six saves. Fantasy managers should expect the A's to continue to play the matchups as the righty Trivino and the lefty Diekman should each earn saves based on who is due up for the opposition. Both Trivino and Diekman should be rostered in 12-team fantasy leagues and larger.

Oakland Athletics relief pitcher Lou Trivino allowed two unearned runs to take a loss in Seattle on Monday. Trivino was summoned in the bottom of the 10th inning to protect a one-run lead after closer Jake Diekman was used earlier in the game. The automatic runner on second base scored on the first batter Trivino faced, tie game. He would take a loss thanks in part to an error on first baseman Matt Olson, which made the runs unearned despite the walk-off victory for the Mariners. Trivino has not allowed an earned run in eight-straight appearances and appears to be the backup option for saves behind Diekman. He has fantasy value in leagues that reward holds.
