Faucher earned the save Saturday against Texas, allowing one run on two hits and one walk in the ninth inning.

EDGE Analysis

It wasn't easy for Faucher, who stranded the possible tying and go-ahead runs by getting Joc Pederson to pop up to end the game. The right-hander has a career-high 15 saves as Miami's primary closer this season, recording a respectable 3.38 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 56:23 K:BB over 58.2 innings. That said, Tyler Phillips and Lake Bachar are also in the ninth-inning mix for the Marlins.

Faucher earned the save Thursday against the Rockies, recording the final out of the game while allowing one hit.

EDGE Analysis

Faucher was summoned with two outs after Valente Bellozo surrendered four runs in the ninth inning. The right-hander gave up a single to Hunter Goodman before inducing a game-ending groundout to secure his 14th save of the year. Faucher has been sharp of late, holding opponents scoreless in seven of his last eight appearances, and needed just six pitches to wrap things up Thursday. On the season, the 29-year-old has converted 14 of 19 save chances while adding seven holds and posting a 3.28 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 56:22 K:BB across 57.2 innings.

Faucher struck out one in a perfect inning to earn the save in Thursday's 7-4 win over the Mets.

EDGE Analysis

Faucher took care of business on a tidy seven pitches (six strikes) to secure his second save in as many outings. It's been a tough August for the right-hander -- he's taken two losses while adding three saves and a hold, and he's given up four runs (two earned) over 10 innings. On the year, he's 13-for-18 in save chances with six holds, a 3.35 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 49:21 K:BB through 51 innings. Faucher looks to still have the edge over Ronny Henriquez for save chances, though the Marlins haven't produced a lot of chances this month.

Faucher earned a save Monday against Atlanta, striking out one and allowing one run on one hit and no walks in the ninth inning.

EDGE Analysis

Faucher served up a solo home run to Drake Baldwin, but he hung on to record his 12th save of the season. The right-hander should remain one of Miami's top ninth-inning options to wrap up the year, though the team's committee approach at closer can be frustrating for fantasy managers at times. Faucher has a 3.42 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 48:21 K:BB over 50 innings.

Faucher earned a save against the Yankees on Saturday, striking out one batter in a perfect inning of work.

EDGE Analysis

The Marlins led 2-0 when Faucher entered in the ninth frame, and he preserved the shutout by retiring the side in order on 12 pitches. Miami's bullpen hierarchy has been difficult to nail down for much of the season, but it appears Faucher could be settling into the closer role -- he's picked up three of the team's past four saves, with the only save that went to another pitcher during that span being a four-inning conversion by Tyler Phillips. Faucher has earned the confidence of manager Clayton McCullough by giving up just two runs over 10.2 frames while posting a 13:4 K:BB across 10 appearances since the start of July.

Faucher earned a save against the Cardinals on Wednesday, striking out one batter in a perfect inning of work.

EDGE Analysis

Faucher entered in the ninth inning tasked with protecting a 2-0 lead. He needed nine pitches to get the first batter he faced out, then needed just seven more offerings to retire St. Louis' next two hitters. Faucher is clearly in the closer mix for the Marlins, as he has registered two of the team's past three saves and leads the squad with 10 saves on the campaign. Ronny Henriquez, who has notched three saves in July, worked in the eighth frame Wednesday.

Faucher earned the save in Wednesday's 3-2 win over the Padres, allowing one hit without recording a walk or strikeout over 1.2 scoreless innings.

EDGE Analysis

Faucher was called upon with one out and the tying run aboard in the eighth, and he delivered a five-out save on just 22 pitches. It was an encouraging effort after the 29-year-old blew a save Friday and entered Wednesday having allowed six earned runs across his previous eight outings. On the season, he's 9-for-14 in save chances with a 4.03 ERA, 1.37 WHIP and 37:16 K:BB across 38 innings while sharing the closer role with Ronny Henriquez.

Faucher worked the ninth inning and blew a save, allowing one run on one hit with no walks while striking out two, during Friday's 8-7 win against the Royals.

EDGE Analysis

Faucher blew his fifth save in 13 tries this season, allowing a game-tying home run off the bat of John Rave. The 29-year-old has allowed a homer in back-to-back appearances after previously not allowing one since May 26. It's a good sign for the right-hander that he was called upon to get the first save opportunity of the second half, considering he and Ronny Henriquez have been locked in a battled for the closer spot all season, but whether he gets these nods moving forward will be worth monitoring. The right-hander has a 4.21 ERA, 1.40 WHIP and 37 strikeouts in 36.1 innings this season.

Faucher gave up a hit and struck out one in a scoreless eighth inning Thursday to record his fifth hold of the season in a win over the Twins.

EDGE Analysis

Ronny Henriquez has picked up the Marlins' last three saves, and four of the team's last five, as he stakes a claim to the closer role. Faucher remains in the high-leverage mix, and the ninth-inning situation for Miami has been volatile all season, but for now it appears as though the 29-year-old righty has been bumped to setup duty. Through 32.1 innings this year, Faucher has compiled a 4.18 ERA, 1.36 WHIP and 30:15 K:BB along with three wins and eight saves against four blown saves.

Faucher (3-2) earned the win but blew a save against the Giants on Wednesday, allowing two runs on one hit and one walk over one inning.

EDGE Analysis

Though he was credited with the victory, this was far from a good outing by the right-hander. Faucher hit two batters and walked another during his time on the mound, and the single he allowed would have ended the game if not for Jung Hoo Lee getting thrown out trying to score. The blown save was Faucher's first since May 26, and he recorded six saves across 10.2 innings during that span. With that in mind, he's probably still the Marlins' top option for saves despite Wednesday's rough appearance.
