Scott Barlow Stats

Kansas City Royals reliever Scott Barlow picked up a four-out save on Thursday, closing out his team's 7-5 win over the Orioles. He came into the game with two runners on in the eighth and promptly allowed a run to score on a Cedric Mullins double before walking the next batter he faced. He managed to escape that bases-loaded jam without allowing any more damage as he went on to toss a scoreless ninth for his sixth save of the campaign. The right-hander has put up strong ratios with a 1.78 ERA and 1.18 WHIP with 23 K through 25 1/3 IP, but he's only seen seven save chances so far in 2022.

Kansas City Royals reliever Scott Barlow worked a pair of scoreless innings to close out the team's 3-2 victory over the Twins on Thursday night. He entered the eighth inning with the bases already loaded and quickly recorded two strikeouts and a groundout to get out of the frame unscathed before coming out again in the ninth. Barlow then served up two singles of his own, but ultimately got Gio Urshela to ground into a force out to end the game with the tying run stranded at third base. The right-hander now has five saves on the campaign to go along with a sharp 1.71 ERA and 1.05 WHIP through 21 IP, making him a solid fantasy arm despite the low save total.

Kansas City Royals relief pitcher Scott Barlow was tagged with his first loss of the season in Monday's 5-3 extra-innings game against the White Sox. Barlow came on to pitch the top of the ninth inning with the game tied 3-3 and delivered a 1-2-3 inning with a strikeout. He stayed on to pitch the 10th with a ghost runner on second. He got the first two outs on a groundout and a strikeout, but then gave up a two-run home run to Luis Robert and allowed a walk before being removed from the game. His final stat line was two runs allowed (one earned) on a hit and a walk with two strikeouts through 1 2/3 innings pitched. The good news is Barlow appears to be the Royals' most trusted bullpen arm and has four saves and two wins with a 1.56 ERA. The bad news is that the Royals may not have a ton of save opportunities and Barlow may pitch in close non-save opportunities. Either way, he still appears the bullpen arm to roster for fantasy managers.
