Fernando Salas appears secure; A.J. Ramos is back

August 22, 2016

Los Angeles Angels – Over the past few weeks, the Los Angeles Angels have been an insult to “shambles” everywhere, and save chances have been scant. But when they occur, they’ve belonged to Fernando Salas. He picked up his fourth save last night, and we’ll remove the asterisk until someone else gets one. In other Angels news, Huston Street is out for the year.

Hierarchy remains: Salas | Ramirez | Guerra. 

Miami Marlins – In his first action since being activated, A.J. Ramos pitched the 8th inning ahead of Fernando Rodney. Ramos is being worked back in slowly, but he should be closing again soon, perhaps as soon as his next appearance.

Updated hierarchy: Ramos | Rodney | Barraclough.

1. Andrew Miller, Cleveland Indians – If Cody Allen needs a day off after his 30-pitch outing yesterday, Miller will get the call.
