Watson notched his first save of the season by retiring each of the three hitters he faced Friday against the Braves.

EDGE Analysis

Watson was able to protect a one-run lead without allowing a baserunner. Even though he wasn't an efficient closer in his two-month stint to finish the 2016 season, he's been effective in two outings to start the season, and he's expected to hold down his role for the foreseeable future, making him a valuable source of saves.
