  • Kimbrel surges into saves lead: Atlanta relief pitcher Craig Kimbrel worked a perfect ninth inning to register his 13th save of the season during the Braves' 2-0 win at Tampa Bay in an interleague game on Sunday. Kimbrel racked up his second save in the three-game series to pull out of a tie with Philadelphia's Jonathan Papelbon and take over the National League lead for saves. He had two strikeouts and did not walk a batter while lowering his ERA to 2.25.

    Fantasy Analysis
    Kimbrel continues to serve as one of the top closers in the majors and has blown just one save in 14 chances this year. The right-hander has also fanned 25 batters in 16 innings, backed by 10 outings with multiple strikeouts this season. Kimbrel is also riding a season-long five-game scoreless streak. Fantasy owners should continue to roll with him in all formats as a dominant relief option.
