Welcome back to another edition of the closer report, where we take a look at each MLB team and their current updated closer situations.
Committee situations
The Red Sox and Royals remain the two biggest committee situations right now in the league. The Boston bullpen is a mess at the moment. Jake Diekman (RP - BOS) was charged with a blown save last Wednesday after Hansel Robles (RP - BOS) walked two Angels hitters and was removed from the game with two outs. In Kansas City, it would appear Josh Staumont (RP - KC) may have a slight edge over Scott Barlow (RP - KC), but neither are seeing many opportunities, to begin with.
Other situations to monitor
Dylan Floro (RP - MIA) was activated from the injured list for Miami. Anthony Bender (RP - MIA) had been steady in the Marlins closer role but as Floro gets back into his rhythm, it is possible he takes control of the closer role or it could be a committee situation. The Twins bullpen is also a situation to monitor, as Emilio Pagan (RP - MIN) appears to still be the primary closer, but Jhoan Duran (RP - MIN) recorded two saves in the first week of May and has looked impressive all season. This could be turning into a committee situation as well.
