Edwin Diaz earns another save

Edwin Diaz worked around a single and a walk in a scoreless tenth inning Tuesday to pick up his 24th save of the season.  He also stuck out one.

Fantasy implications: Diaz has now saved 12 games in his last 14 appearances. With this outing, the elite closer has dropped his ERA to 2.96, the first time it has been under three since April 9. He threw 14 of his 24 pitches for strikes. He is paying dividends to those who were patient with him after his woeful start of the season. Diaz should be in fantasy lineups of all settings.
