Fantasy Baseball Closer Shakeup: Unexpected Trades Reshape Rankings and Reveal Hidden Closers to Watch!
Tier 4
Raisel Iglesias – Atlanta Braves
Jojo Romero – St. Louis Cardinals
Robert Garcia – Texas Rangers
Blake Treinen/Alex Vesia – Los Angeles Dodgers
Cole Sands – Minnesota Twins
The Braves were mostly quiet at the trade deadline as Iglesias remains with the team to continue his closing duties. The 35-year-old right-hander has had a disappointing season, posting a 4.74 ERA and 13 saves across 43 2/3 innings. On the other hand, the Cardinals sent closer Ryan Helsley to the Mets on Wednesday before trading Phil Maton to the Rangers on Thursday, leaving Jojo Romero as the likely closer through the rest of the season. The 28-year-old left-hander has had a strong campaign, recording a 2.04 ERA over 35 1/3 frames. While not the flashiest option with elite strikeout upside, Romero should still be added in most formats where saves are needed.
