Ryan Tepera Stats

Los Angeles Angels relief pitcher Ryan Tepera picked up his second save of the season in Monday's 1-0 win over the A's. Tepera got the call to end the game and delivered a 1-2-3 inning with no strikeouts. The veteran has seen save opportunities at times throughout his career and has managed a decent 3.95 ERA through 41 innings pitched this season. However, four different relievers have seen save opportunities for the Angels since the trade deadline, when Raisel Iglesias was traded. Tepera may be the best bet for fantasy managers chasing saves given his prior experience, but his fantasy value is still low given how poorly the Angels have played and the uncertainty at the back of the bullpen.

The Los Angeles Angels have signed relief pitcher Ryan Tepera to a two-year deal worth $14 million. The 34-year-old split the 2021 season with the Chicago Cubs and Chicago White Sox. Overall, he appeared in 65 games and pitched to a 2.79 ERA and a 0.88 WHIP while averaging 10.9 K/9. He compiled two saves and 22 holds over the course of the year. Raisel Iglesias is currently set to be the Angels' closer going into 2022. Tepera could wind up being one of the top setup men in front of Iglesias. Fantasy managers in deep leagues who are looking for setup men who can rack up holds should keep Tepera on their radar.

Chicago White Sox relief pitcher Ryan Tepera (finger) told reporters that he hopes to return to the team early next week.

Over 20 appearances with the White Sox, he has a 2.81 ERA and a 1.00 WHIP to go along with six holds and a save.
