Fantasy Impact:

Bard stated, 'It's a hard thing to admit, but I've been through this before. I have enough going on outside the game to realize what's important.' The reliever dealt with the yips earlier in his career and spent many years out of the majors. Pierce Johnson and Dinelson Lamet will likely get the first crack at being the team's closer in his absence.
