Ziegler went 1.2 innings without allowing a baserunner to pick up his 13th save in Monday's win over the Dodgers.

EDGE Analysis

Ziegler was Herculean on Monday, as he had to clean up Daniel Hudson's mess in the eighth after Hudson walked the bases loaded in a one-run game. Ziegler got a strikeout and a lineout to escape the jam before three groundouts retired the Dodgers in the ninth. His ERA is down to 2.93 as Ziegler continues to succeed despite lacking the swing-and-miss stuff most closers possess.

Ziegler gave up two hits and one run in an inning of work during Wednesday's loss to the Rays.

EDGE Analysis

It was a non-save situation for Ziegler, so he remains a perfect 11-for-11 in save opportunities. On the season, he now has a 3.24 ERA and 1.52 WHIP with just 14 strikeouts in 25 innings. With the high WHIP and low strikeout rate, Ziegler is going to induce some heartburn on the mound, but he's been able to shut the door when called upon.

Ziegler shut the door on the Cubs for his 11th save of the season Sunday afternoon.

EDGE Analysis

Zielger walked Anthony Rizzo with two outs in the ninth, putting the tying run on base, but then got Miguel Montero to ground out to end the game. However, the 36-year-old continues to have a difficult time closing the game without giving up a baserunner. His 1.50 WHIP illustrated Ziegler lives on the wild side, but he's managed to remain perfect in save chances through 23 games.

EDGE Analysis

Ziegler is 10-for-10 in save chances this year and has converted 38 straight dating back to last season, which is tied for the 12th-longest streak in MLB history. He doesn't strike a ton of guys out (5.32 K/9) and he doesn't really limit baserunners (1.55 WHIP), but Ziegler has found a way to get the job done and he should be safe in the closer role moving forward.

EDGE Analysis

Ziegler is safe in his role as the team's closer, and he remains perfect going 9-for-9 in save chances this year. His stats aren't exactly pretty (1-2 with a 3.54 ERA) but he's getting the job done for the D-Backs every time he's asked to, and he's notched 37 straight saves dating back to 2015.

Ziegler rebounded from Sunday's loss to the Giants by picking up his eighth save in Tuesday's 5-3 win over the Yankees. He walked a batter and struck out one while tossing 16 pitches.

EDGE Analysis

EDGE Analysis

The Diamondbacks' closer has converted 35 straight save opportunities dating back to last season, but he doesn't have overwhelming stuff and is susceptible to innings like this from time to time. He now owns a 2.76 ERA, 1.65 WHIP and 10:8 K:BB across 16.1 innings this year.

EDGE Analysis

Ziegler is 7-for-7 in save chances this season, and while his peripherals (1.61 WHIP, 10:7 K:BB in 14.1 innings) aren't great, he's still getting the job done with a 2.51 ERA. As long as he's recording saves, Ziegler figures to keep the closer gig over the likes of Daniel Hudson and Tyler Clippard.

EDGE Analysis

While his 2.51 ERA appears solid, Ziegler's 1.61 WHIP and 10:7 K:BB in 14.1 innings are a better reflection of how he's pitched. He's 7-for-7 in converting save chances, however, and as long as he continues to get the job done when it matters he'll hang onto the closer role for the Diamondbacks.
