48 Alex Colome RP

Colome posted a four-out save with three strikeouts in a 2-0 victory against the Indians on Tuesday.

The 30-year-old was very sharp despite this being his first save opportunity since April 29. Before Tuesday, he had only pitched one time since then. Colome won't receive a ton of save chances with the White Sox, but he's off to a very strong start. He is 7-for-7 in save chances with a 1.98 ERA, 0.73 WHIP and 16 strikeouts in 15 innings.

Colome struck out two batters in a perfect ninth inning to secure the save over Baltimore on Monday.

Colome made quick work of the Orioles in the ninth frame, striking out the first two batters he faced before forcing Joey Rickard to ground out. The 30-year-old righty is now a perfect 6-for-6 in save chances this season with a 2.13 ERA.

Colome struck out two batters and allowed one baserunner on a walk in his fifth save of the year during a 4-1 victory against the Tigers on Sunday.

The 30-year-old threw eight of his 13 pitches for strikes, meaning he only had one ball combined against the three hitters he retired. Colome is pitching fine this season, but this was his first save since April 15. His four appearances since then haven't been in save opportunities. Colome is 5-for-5 in those chances with an overall 2.31 ERA, 0.86 WHIP and 10 strikeouts in 11.2 innings this season.

Colome walked one and struck out two in a scoreless ninth inning to record his fourth save of the season in a 5-4 win over the Royals.

The right-hander has looked good so far, posting a 2.57 ERA and 8:1 K:BB through seven innings while converting all four of his save chances. If recent White Sox history holds true, Colome will be flipped to a contender by the trade deadline, but his hold on the closer role for the team should be secure until then.

Colome earned his third save of the season after tossing a perfect inning Sunday against the Yankees.

Colome is now 3-for-3 on save opportunities this year following Sunday's flawless outing. He needed just 13 pitches (10 strikes) to retire the final three batters of the ballgame. The 30-year-old right-hander has posted a 3.00 ERA with six punchouts over six frames in 2019.
