Notes 
 In 2022, Kenley Jansen led the NL in saves with 41. His K% was an impressive 32.7, and his BB% plummeted to 8.5 (from 12.9 in 2021). His xERA was an entire run lower than his actual, and batters hit .191 against him. While his chances of repeating 40+ saves are low, he enters the season as THE guy in Boston and should be one of the Top 10 closers off the board.

Nick Lodolo arrived on the scene and shortly thereafter hit the IL with a back injury. When he returned, he dazzled fantasy managers with his 11.41 K/9 and 3.49 xFIP. Yes, the Reds are going to be absolutely terrible, so there probably won't be many wins. But Lodolo is a strikeout machine (131 in 103 innings) and has the stuff to improve on his rookie numbers with a full season. Go get him.
