Richard Bleier News
Boston Red Sox left-hander Richard Bleier (shoulder) threw a bullpen session on Tuesday, according to manager Alex Cora. There is still no timetable for his return, however. Bleier last saw game action on May 21 before experiencing shoulder inflammation and hitting the injured list. The 36-year-old veteran had struggled prior to the injury, posting a 5.85 ERA, 1.35 WHIP, and 13.8% strikeout rate over 20 innings. Bleier has had some fantasy value earlier in his career as a late-inning arm, but fantasy managers can go ahead and drop him in all formats if they haven't already.
Miami Marlins relief pitcher Richard Bleier signed a two-year, $6 million contract extension on Monday. It's a solid deal for both sides, as the soon to be 35-year-old was a strong bullpen arm and seemed to work into a role as a leader in 2021. Bleier doesn't strike too many guys out, but he also rarely issues any walks. Any relief pitcher on a Don Mattingly-managed team presents risk in a fantasy league, but holds league players looking for a solid but unspectacular guy to grab in the final round could certainly do worse than Richard Bleier.
Miami Marlins relief pitcher Richard Bleier pitched in with a perfect inning in Sunday's Grapefruit League game against the New York Mets. Bleier pitched the seventh inning, needing just eight pitches (seven strikes) to retire the side in order. He wraps up Grapefruit League play with a 2.35 ERA and should have a significant role near the back of the Marlins bullpen. He's not a saves candidate at this point, but he should be able to pick up holds somewhat consistently and could be an option at the end of drafts or on the waiver wire for teams in deep holds formats.
