Jared Hughes picks up save on Thursday
by Brendan Tuma | Fri, May 25th 9:24am EDT
Reds reliever Jared Hughes got the final two outs in Thursday's 5-4 win over the Pirates, securing his second save of 2018.
Fantasy Impact:
It appeared as if Amir Garrett was the first choice to earn the save, but he gave up a two-run homer to Austin Meadows in the ninth. Hughes then came in to finish it off. The Reds are expected to use a committee at closer with Raisel Iglesias sidelined, but for now Hughes appears to have a leg up. It's not a high ceiling situation, but fantasy players in need of saves could do worse.
