Joakim Soria notches fifth save of the year

Joakim Soria (RP - FA)

RHP Joakim Soria earned the save on Monday when he scattered a pair of hits with two strikeouts over one inning in the D-Backs' 4-2 win over the Pirates.

Fantasy Impact
Soria worked his way around a pair of singles in the ninth inning and was able to secure his fifth save of the year for the D-Backs. He's been up and down as evidenced by his 4.61 ERA, 1.39 WHIP, and 28:8 K/BB ratio over 27 1/3 innings but he's the undisputed closer in the desert and that makes him fantasy relevant.
