Jacob Barnes picks up two-inning save
by Brad Richter | Nationals Correspondent | Wed, Apr 18th 4:54pm EDT
Jacob Barnes pitched the final two frames of a 2-0 victory over the Reds on Wednesday afternoon to record his second save of the season. Barnes did not allow a hit while walking one and recording three strikeouts.
Fantasy Impact:
The Brewers are making the two-inning save trendy again with three straight saves spanning two innings, one by Barnes and two by Josh Hader. Look for manager Craig Counsell to keep rolling with his latest method of managing the bullpen while Corey Knebel is out since it appears to be working. Barnes will continue to be in the mix for saves but Hader is the preferred pickup in fantasy leagues.
