Chicago Cubs closer Adbert Alzolay blew his fourth save of the season and took the loss on Saturday in a 3-2 defeat by the Marlins in Game 1 of their doubleheader. Alzolay allowed a single to Luis Arraez and then a two-run go-ahead home run to Bryan De La Cruz before retiring the final two batters in the inning. It has been a rollercoaster ride for the 29-year-old, as he's collected three saves to along with the four he's blown, allowing five earned runs on 10 hits and four walks while striking out nine over 10 IP. The righty's ERA now stands at 4.50 and WHIP at 1.40. Fellow reliever Hector Neris recorded the save in Game 2 and could earn more opportunities if Alzolay continues to falter, although Neris' numbers so far this season don't exactly inspire confidence either, with a 3.86 ERA and a whopping 1.86 WHIP in seven innings pitched.
Chicago Cubs relief pitcher Adbert Alzolay was called upon to hold a one-run lead against the Seattle Mariners on Sunday. The right-hander struck out the first two batters he faced before allowing a single to Cal Raleigh. The Mariners decided to use Julio Rodriguez as a pinch-runner in this spot. Unfortunately for the Mariners, Rodriguez was picked off first base to end the ballgame. Alzolay has a 2.35 ERA and a 9/1 K/BB in 7 2/3 innings this season.
Adbert Alzolay recorded his second save of the season on Saturday as the Chicago Cubs beat the Seattle Mariners 3-1. Alzolay entered the game in the bottom of the ninth and got Dylan Moore to ground out to lead off the inning, before getting Dominic Canzone to fly out. After Cal Raleigh had a single, Alzolay struck out JP Crawford to end the game and get his second save of the season. The right-hander is now 1-1 with a 2.70 ERA this season, while 2-for-4 on save opportunities.
Chicago Cubs relief pitcher Adbert Alzolay was handed the ball with a two-run lead against the Los Angeles Dodgers on Friday. The right-hander gave up two singles to begin the inning. Luckily for fantasy managers, Alzolay was able to retire the next three batters and record his first save of the season. He's allowed one run in four innings this season and should be rostered in most fantasy formats where saves matter.
Chicago Cubs relief pitcher Adbert Alzolay picked up the win during Wednesday's 9-8 victory over the Colorado Rockies, throwing a scoreless ninth inning on one hit with two strikeouts to close out the victory. Although Alzolay was granted a win in the box score following the game on a technicality, fantasy managers are just glad he rebounded from blowing an Opening Day save in the walk-off loss to the Texas Rangers last Thursday. There were murmurs during spring training that manager Craig Counsell would let Chicago's bullpen hierarchy play out organically rather than assign roles himself, but setup man Hector Neris has struggled to a 6.75 ERA and 2.25 WHIP across his first three appearances. Alzolay, on the other hand, has given up just one run with four punchouts over his first three innings and is quite clearly first in line for the Cubs' save chances going forward.
