Devin Williams

Devin Williams played second fiddle to Josh Hader for most of four seasons before finally getting handed the ball after Milwaukee traded the latter to San Diego. Out of 14 Statcast pitching categories, the 28-year-old ranks in the 99th or 100th percentile in nine of them. His weakness - BB% - is the thing that keeps him in Tier 2 of closers for most fantasy analysts, but his talent and abilities cannot be ignored during drafts. Milwaukee is a pitching-heavy team that will offer plenty of save opportunities. Right now, Williams is the clear choice to get the first crack at them and rack up strikeouts for your team while doing so.

Devin Williams allows two runs in relief in Saturday's loss to Marlins

Devin Williams struggled through 1/3 of an inning in relief on the mound for the Brewers Saturday, allowing two runs on one hit while also walking two and striking out one while blowing the save chance and taking the loss in the Brewers' 4-3 loss to the Marlins.

Fantasy Impact

Williams allowed runs for just the second time in his last 10 relief appearances for the Brewers, posting a 3.00 K/BB ratio with six saves in that span. The right-hander carries a 1.01 WHIP and 1.93 ERA with 96 strikeouts and 15 saves in 65 relief appearances this season.
