Sipp collects first save: Indians reliever Tony Sipp earned his first save of the season in Game 2 of Monday's doubleheader against the White Sox. He entered in the ninth inning with a one-run lead and despite issuing a two-out walk, worked a scoreless frame to secure the 3-2 win. Sipp also struck out two while lowering his ERA to 8.00.

Fantasy Analysis
Sipp has not gotten off to the best of starts this season but looked sharp on Monday and collected the second save of his career with Chris Perez unavailable. While he might be valuable as a middle reliever in those Fantasy formats that utilize them, continue to ignore the left-hander in the majority of formats going forward. (Updated 05/07/2012).
