The Pittsburgh closer should be well rested after making just his second appearance in the last week. There was some concern he was being overworked after pitching in 11 games in the first 24 days of the season.","date":"Wed May 1"},"fullName":"Jason Grilli","seasonOutlook":{"outlook":"Grilli's emergence the past couple seasons was one of the primary reasons the Pirates were so willing to trade closer Joel Hanrahan during Christmas week; they knew they had an underrated fallback already inked to a two-year, $6.75 million deal. Odd, isn't it, considering Grilli is a 36-year-old, 10-year major league veteran with only five career saves to his credit? Kudos to the Pirates for realizing that you can go cheap at closer, as they recognized that the right-hander has remade himself, going primarily fastball-slider, and posting a 2.76 ERA and 1.16 WHIP the past two seasons combined. He's plenty capable of closing, with the occasional blip due to his low ground ball rate, but at least he pitches for a Pirates team lacking in ninth-inning alternatives. As a lower-end fantasy closer available in the late rounds, Grilli definitely warrants your attention.","seasonId":2013,"date":"Wed Feb 20"},"playerRater30DAY":6.8,"playerRater15DAY":6.3,"positionRank":2}
