Jason Grilli rebounds with save number 16

Jason Grilli allowed two base runners in a tight game on Tuesday night, but managed his 16th save of the season in a late-inning victory over the Padres.

Fantasy Impact:

Grilli was a bit shaky - allowing a base hit and a walk - but managed to make it through the ninth without allowing the tying run. Grilli seems to get more of the one-run save opportunities than most closers, and is rarely given any breathing room to make mistakes. However, against these odds he still remains a quality closer option this season, and I wouldn't be surprised to see Grilli sent to a competitive team at the trade deadline to earn even more saves.
