Yoshihisa Hirano News
Seattle Mariners relief pitcher Yoshihisa Hirano gave up three runs on three hits and two walks while just recording one out in Sunday's game against the Athletics. That's back-to-back bad outings for Hirano to end the season, giving him a 5.84 ERA and 2.11 WHIP heading into the offseason. Hirano was supposed to be the Mariners closer heading into 2020 but never fully regained that position after starting the year on the COVID-19 list. It will be interesting to see what moves Seattle makes in the offseason, but if all things remain the same, Hirano will be a low-end closer option for 2021.
Seattle Mariners relief pitcher Yoshihisa Hirano gave up two runs on three hits and a walk in securing his fourth save on Wednesday against the Astros. This outing raised Hirano's ERA to 3.75 and his WHIP to 1.75 on the year. The Mariners will head to Oakland to take on the 33-21 Athletics on Friday for their final series of the season. If fantasy owners are starving for saves, Hirano may be worth playing over the weekend but he is a risk to ratio stats.
Seattle Mariners relief pitcher Yoshihisa Hirano gave up a solo home run to Ronald Guzman, but struck out the side against the Rangers on Sunday for his first save of 2020. This is now back-to-back starts where Hirano has given up at least a run, but that shouldn't jeopardize his job security. With all of the trades that Seattle made at the deadline, there isn't a whole lot of talent left in their bullpen, so it looks to be Hirano's job for the foreseeable future. Hirano remains a low-to-mid level fantasy closer for the remainder of the season.
