The save was Nathan's eight of the year and seventh straight in his last seven appearances. Like anyone else, Nathan is prone to occasional hiccup. It's not anything with which to be concerned. He remains an excellent option.","date":"Fri Apr 26"},"fullName":"Joe Nathan","seasonOutlook":{"outlook":"Fully recovered from 2010's Tommy John surgery, Nathan reclaimed his spot among the top closers in the game last season and even improved his ground ball rate to help limit the homers in hitter friendly Texas. Some are shying away fearing injury, but there is no out of the ordinary reason to do so. If you're looking for a top closer at a possible discount, look at Nathan.","seasonId":2013,"date":"Thu Feb 21"},"playerRater30DAY":3.7,"playerRater15DAY":1.2,"positionRank":15}
