I like the Wheeler pickup, Fuzz; didn't realize he was out there. You basically dropped one injury risk for another and Zack's pitching pretty well right now, not to mention hitting 95-96 on his fastball.

good news for some bad news for others:suds:

Blake Treinen has been named the Nationals' closer.

Nationals manager Dusty Baker made the announcement Thursday in camp. Koda Glover looked like the favorite at one point, with Shawn Kelley probably next in line, but Treinen has been terrific this spring and offers the Nats the best combination of reliability and durability leading into 2017. He also has one of the best power sinkers in the sport. Treinen obviously needs to be owned in all fantasy leagues with Opening Day approaching.

I don't have a stake in any of these guys, but I've gotta admit I glossed over ol' Dusty in these early goings. Koda had no chance of getting the closers job.

That said, I woulda gone for Kelley over Treinen, so it's probably best I steered clear anyway.

Tossing a shutout early on, despite Tanaka getting lit up.

Good sign...

Oh was rated as one of the top 3 closers. He was one of my stay far away from players.

I never considered him as a closer option. Just annoyed he took a W away from Martinez.

My 2 best SP started yesterday and today. Both did not allow a single run but I don't have a W to show for it. Pretty disappointing

Don't feel bad BK. I have 5 guys on the DL and was so busy this weekend I forgot to set my lineup, so I left 3 of them in the lineup.:L

Whoops sorry, BK...I hope I didn't offend you. Let me rephrase that:

"Your disappointment now will most likely lessen the blow when you go down in defeat at the hands of my team; however, it will have been a glorious battle and we are all winners in the end. Huzzah!" ;)

Oh is very good.

That blown save was pretty unlucky. First, he should not have been asked to pitch 1.2 innings on opening night. Second, the infield hit really should have been an error. Carpenter botched the hell out of that. Third, Oh had Contreras on what should have been strike 3 looking on the pitch before he went yard.

What should have been a relatively clean inning ended in disaster.
