Jeurys Familia waiting for opportunities

by Chris Zolli | Mon, Aug 29th 8:14am EDT

Jeurys Familia may lead baseball with 42 saves, but he has not had an opportunity since August 23. He has converted his last three saves, and five of six this month, registering an 0.87 ERA and 0.87 WHIP this month. He has a 2.70 ERA and 1.25 WHIP this season.

Fantasy Impact:

Familia has allowed eight hits and one walk in August, striking out 13 batters in 10 1/3 innings. His 64 strikeouts in 60 innings are what separate him from the top tier of closers, as Kenley Jansen and Zach Britton each strike out more batters, but he is still a top-five RP.
