Fernando Rodney ready to roll

by Kyle Smith | Thu, Apr 2nd 8:39pm EDT

Fernando Rodney has been great this spring and looks ready to roll into the regular season. He has made eight appearances on the spring and has not allowed a run through 7 2/3 innings. He has had some control issues as he has allowed six walks in those innings but this is nothing new for Rodney.

Fantasy Impact:

In 2014 Rodney was one of the best closers in baseball. He locked down 48 saves in 51 chances and held a 2.85 ERA. With the Mariners improved offense and excellent pitching staff, it is not inconceivable to believe that Rodney can replicate those numbers in 2015. He is likely undervalued in fantasy leagues because of his reputation as a guy that walks a lot of batters and should be a terrific value pick for all the owners that continue to believe in him.
