The Chicago Cubs have gone through their fair share of closers over the past few years. Chicago has had seven different closers since 2016, including Adbert Alzolay, David Robertson, and Craig Kimbrel in each of the past three seasons (2021 to 2023).The Cubs are hoping for some consistency in that role again in 2024 after Alzolay posted 22 saves one season ago. With the Cubs expected to be competitive in 2024, whichever reliever lands that closer role could find himself with plenty of ...

Chicago Cubs relief pitcher Adbert Alzolay threw a hitless ninth frame to preserve a 3-2 win over the Baltimore Orioles on Saturday. The 28-year-old struck out a pair of batters, netting his fourth save of the season. It seems Alzolay has usurped Mark Leiter Jr. as the Cubs reliever to roster in fantasy after earning Chicago's previous two save chances. The right-hander has assembled an outstanding 1.97 ERA, 0.87 WHIP and 33:6 K:BB over 32 total innings. Alzolay has battled several injuries ...

Chicago Cubs right-hander Adbert Alzolay earned his second save of the season when his team defeated the Tampa Bay Rays 2-1 on Tuesday. He threw the last two innings of the game, striking out four and allowing no baserunners. Alzolay has done well out of the bullpen this year, pitching to a 2.42 ERA and 0.85 WHIP with 26 punchouts over 26 innings, and has added five holds to his line. Mark Leiter Jr. pitched the seventh inning against the top of the order and was successful with a clean ...

Chicago Cubs right-hander Adbert Alzolay got the ninth inning on Saturday, closing out the 4-2 win over the Miami Marlins. He threw a perfect inning with no strikeouts to pick up his first save of the campaign. The Cubs closer situation is wide open right now, as four relievers have saves under their belts, and the last three saves have gone to three different pitchers. Alzolay may continue to be an option to close moving forward, given his strong 2.87 ERA, 30.0% strikeout rate, and 0.89 WHIP ...

BALLER MOVE: Draft target ~pick 430CURRENT ADP: ~500 overallANALYSIS: There's something about converted starters that really gets my blood pumping. Alzolay had some lofty expectations tied to him as a starter earlier in his career, but unfortunately, those never came to fruition. But there is certainly a silver lining here, as the Cubs announced he would be used exclusively as a reliever in 2023. The sample size isn't huge by any means but Alzolay does have a chunk of time as a reliever under ...

Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Adbert Alzolay (lat) went two innings in his minor league rehab start for Triple-A Iowa on Saturday, and he allowed one run on one hit while walking two and striking out six. Alzolay has been out all year due to a right shoulder lat, but he appears to be getting closer to making his 2022 debut for the Cubbies. The 27-year-old went 5-13 last year with a 4.58 ERA (4.65 FIP), a 1.16 WHIP and a 128:34 K:BB in 125 2/3 innings over 29 appearances (21 starts) in Chicago. ...

Chicago Cubs right-hander Adbert Alzolay (shoulder) started his minor league rehab assignment in the Arizona Complex League on Monday and allowed one run while striking out four in three innings pitched. Alzolay has yet to pitch for the Cubs this year after beginning the regular season on the injured list with a strained right lat, but he's getting closer to making his 2022 season debut. The 27-year-old will surely have at least a couple more rehab outings before he becomes a realistic option ...

The Chicago Cubs placed starting pitcher Adbert Alzolay (lat) on the 60-day injured list on Friday to open a roster spot for recently signed Japanese outfielder Seiya Suzuki. Alzolay will miss around the next two months after being diagnosed with a right lat strain this week. The intriguing young right-hander missed almost four months with a very similar injury in 2018, so fantasy managers need to consider his injury when considering stashing him. The 27-year-old from Venezuela has fanned 9.6 ...
