| Craig Kimbrel closes out Dodgers |
by Igor Mello | CBSSports.com
(6/9/13) Braves closer Craig Kimbrel notched his 18th save of the season Saturday night against the Dodgers.

| It wasn't as much the rookie record 46 saves that captured Craig Kimbrel NL Rookie of the Year honors in 2011 as it was his 2.10 ERA, 1.04 WHIP, 5.6 hits per nine innings and 14.6 strikeouts per nine innings -- numbers so out-of-this-world that few thought he'd be capable of exceeding them. But that's exactly what he did in 2012, further removing himself from the rest of the closer crop with a 1.01 ERA, 0.65 WHIP, 16.7 strikeouts per nine innings and 3.9 hits per nine innings. The strikeout and hit rates are especially astounding. They're the lowest marks for any pitcher with at least 40 innings in the modern era. The only closer who compared with Kimbrel in terms of Fantasy value last year was Aroldis Chapman -- who himself had a 1.51 ERA, 0.81 WHIP, 15.3 strikeouts per nine innings and 4.4 hits per nine innings -- but with Chapman now moving to the starting rotation, Kimbrel clearly stands alone at the position entering 2013. Of course, because Chapman retains eligibility at relief pitcher, he might actually project as the No. 1 player at the position in standard Head-to-Head leagues. Kris Medlen, another converted reliever, has a claim to that title as well. But among those actually getting saves, you won't find better than Kimbrel on Draft Day. He's the one of his kind projected to go in the early rounds. (Updated 1/8/13) |
