An Old Friend Returns (Rotoworld)

The end game approaches. With just 26 days left in the season, closer turn over should be at a minimum. We probably witnessed the final “closer” trade last week as the Angels sent fourth string fireman Fernando Salas to the Mets where he'll resume a middle relief role. The move came hours after the last Saves and Steals was published. Since then, an very old friend reestablished himself as a titled closer.

There is still a chance Kenley Jansen (42 saves) or Zach Britton (40 saves) will catch Jeurys Familia and his 46 saves.
