Thanks to our guy Rob for providing these every week on time! He’s the man, this post has been very helpful.


Atlanta Braves

Closer: Raisel Iglesias
One blown save and one converted save last week. Nothing to worry about—he’s still firmly in control.

Holds Targets: Tyler Kinley (paternity leave / expected back shortly), Dylan Lee, Robert Suarez (IL), Didier Fuentes
Kinley returns from injury but briefly steps away on paternity leave. Suarez lands on the IL, opening the door for Fuentes, who has already picked up two holds in the past week. Lee remains one of the best holds arms in baseball.


Miami Marlins

Closer: Pete Fairbanks
Still the closer, but recent performance has been shaky enough to keep an eye on.

Holds Targets: Michael Peterson, Calvin Faucher, Anthony Bender (IL)
Peterson is now the priority. Fifteen holds and a strong strikeout profile make him the best speculative add if Fairbanks stumbles.
