Jordan Romano Strikes Out the Side to Earn Save

Philadelphia Phillies relief pitcher Jordan Romano picked up his fifth save of the season on Sunday, tossing a perfect ninth inning to preserve a 1-0 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates. Romano has been fantastic of late, with eight straight scoreless appearances in which he has allowed a total of four baserunners. The 32-year-old still holds horrible numbers on the season, but most of that was from a few brutal outings early on. With Jose Alvarado suspended for 80 games due to PED use, Romano could be in line for the majority of save opportunities, although Matt Strahm could see some usage as well. Romano should be rostered in all leagues where saves matter.

Framber Valdez Goes Seven Innings in Third Win

Houston Astros starting pitcher Framber Valdez had a strong start on Sunday, posting seven innings of three-run ball in a 4-3 win over the Texas Rangers. Valdez allowed six hits and a walk while striking out eight in a solid performance. It was the third start in a row of seven-plus innings for the lefty, who appears to have found his stuff again after a few rough starts early in the season. He now has a 3-4 record with a 3.57 ERA, 1.13 WHIP, and 59 strikeouts over 63 IP. While the numbers don't fly off the page, Valdez is one of the best bets for volume in all of baseball while maintaining solid ratios and strikeouts, making him an elite option in fantasy.

Cody Bellinger Reaches Base Five Times, Knocks In Six

New York Yankees outfielder Cody Bellinger had a monster game at the plate on Sunday, going 3-for-3 with a homer, a double, two walks, and six RBI in an 8-2 win over the New York Mets. Bellinger's home run was a grand slam in the eighth inning that effectively ended this one. The 29-year-old has been excellent in May, going 20-for-57 with four homers and 12 RBI in the month so far. The hot stretch has brought his overall line to a .258 AVG, 25 runs, seven homers, 28 RBI, and four steals. He has been productive and should remain that way in a strong Yankees lineup. Bellinger should be an automatic start for fantasy managers.

Shelby Miller Picks Up Save on Sunday

Arizona Diamondbacks relief pitcher Shelby Miller worked out of a bases-loaded jam in the ninth to finish off the Colorado Rockies and earn his fourth save in a 1-0 win. Miller allowed two hits and intentionally walked a batter, but was able to get out of it. With the D-backs' bullpen riddled with injuries, Miller has stepped up when called upon and been solid as the fill-in closer. He is now 4-for-6 in save opportunities with a 1.37 ERA, 1.12 WHIP, and 22 strikeouts in 19 IP. Unfortunately for Miller and his fantasy owners, Justin Martinez is currently rehabbing in Triple-A and will likely take back the closer's role when he returns. It makes sense to hold onto Miller just to see what his usage is when Martinez comes back, but if there are other save options available it is certainly worth a look.

Jac Caglianone Promoted to Triple-A

The Kansas City Royals are promoting first base/outfield prospect Jac Caglianone to Triple-A. The Royals drafted Caglianone with the sixth overall pick in last year's draft out of Florida. Last season, Caglianone began his professional career with High-A Quad Cities. Across 29 games, Caglianone posted a .241/.302/.388 slash line with nine doubles, one triple, two home runs, and two stolen bases. However, through the early part of the 2025 campaign, Caglianone has been one of the most productive hitters in the minor leagues. During his first 38 games at the Double-A level, Caglianone has posted an impressive .322/.394/.553 slash line with eight doubles and nine long balls. Fantasy managers should pay close attention to his progression at Triple-A, as he should be in the mix for an early 2025 MLB debut.
