Jeremy Jeffress Efficient On Saturday rotoballer.com Sun 5/5/19 12:11 AM
Milwaukee Brewers reliever Jeremy Jeffress pitched a perfect inning on six pitches in Saturday's game against the Mets. This now makes three perfect innings in a row since Jeffress had his two blow up starts. Josh Hader is firmly the Brewers closer, but if Jeffress can regain some of the velocity he has lost, he could be a decent option in ratios leagues and may get a few saves here and there. However, Hader is likely to get the lion's share of the saves for the rest of the season.
Jeremy Jeffress Doesn't Record An Out rotoballer.com Sun 4/28/19 1:06 AM
Milwaukee Brewers reliever Jeremy Jeffress came into the eighth inning with a three run lead and allowed two hits, a walk and a run before being pulled for Josh Hader without recording an out. This was the first time that Jeffress had given up a run this season and it was a bad time for him to do so for his fantasy value as Hader recorded a perfect two inning save. Jeffress has also lost a lot of velocity on his fastball since returning from the shoulder injury. Jeffress averaged 95.3 mph on h[...]

Jeremy Jeffress To Be Eased Into High-Leverage Situations rotoballer.com Tue 4/16/19 2:08 PM

He also had 15 saves and should eventually factor into the ninth-inning mix with Josh Hader now that Corey Knebel (elbow) is out for the year. Those in need of saves should have already picked up Jeffress, but you may want to wai[...]
