Juan Nicasio is being considered at closer for the Pirates, according to manager Clint Hurdle. (Pittsburgh Tribune-Review)
Fantasy Impact:
Nicasio has been impressive of late, and current closer Tony Watson has been anything but. Felipe Rivero is by far the most talented RP in the Pirates' bullpen, but Hurdle indicated that he'd like to continue to use Rivero in high-leverage situations, ala Andrew Miller in Cleveland. Nicasio is worth an add for those speculating on saves.
