Addison Reed collected his 19th save of the year Sunday as the White Sox beat the A's 4-2.
Reed retired all three batters he faced in order, racking up two strikeouts. There were fatigue concerns after the right-hander threw 55 pitches in Wednesday's extra-innings victory over the Mariners, but he looked fine on Sunday and should remain an excellent fantasy closer going forward. Reed has a superb 1.07 WHIP and 34/9 K/BB ratio in 29 innings this season. Jun 9 - 4:54 PM

Addison Reed - R - White Sox

Addison Reed is not available for Thursday's game against the Athletics.

No surprise here, as Reed threw 55 pitches over three innings in Wednesday's extra-inning win over the Mariners. Jesse Crain would get the ball if a save situation arises Thursday.

Addison Reed - R - White Sox

Addison Reed was awarded the win Wednesday in a 7-5 victory over the Mariners that lasted 16 innings.

Reed first entered the game in the bottom of the 14th inning with the White Sox up 5-0 and yielded four singles then a game-tying grand slam to Mariners third baseman Kyle Seager. But he threw two scoreless frames after that and the Pale Hose were finally able to break through in the 16th. Reed's ERA shot up from 2.25 to 3.67 but his grip is still firm on Chicago's ninth-inning role.

Addison Reed made a relief appearance in Sunday's loss to the Athletics.

It was a non-save situation, but Reed hadn't pitched in seven days so the White Sox wanted to get him into a game. He allowed one run on two hits in the ninth inning. Reed has a 2.25 ERA and 1.00 WHIP this season.

Addison Reed - R - White Sox

Addison Reed earned his 17th save of the season Sunday as the White Sox defeated the Marlins 5-3.

It was the first sweep of the year for the Pale Hose, who racked up five runs on eight hits and got a decent performance out of starter Dylan Axelrod. Reed closed it out with a perfect ninth inning and is now 17-for-18 on the season with a 1.96 ERA, 0.96 WHIP and 26/8 K/BB ratio in 23 innings. He's been a top-tier fantasy closer.

Addison Reed - R - White Sox

Addison Reed picked up his 16th save on Tuesday in the White Sox' victory over the Red Sox.

Reed's 16 saves now rank behind only Jason Grilli and Mariano Rivera for the league lead, and he's blown just one opportunity on the year. The right-hander owns a 2.14 ERA and 1.05 WHIP, having struck out 24 batters in 21 innings. And after serving up six home runs last season, he's yet to be taken deep thus far. It's shaping up to be a big year for the young righty.

Addison Reed - R - White Sox

Addison Reed twirled a perfect ninth inning against the Angels Thursday for his 13th save.

Now 13-for-14 in save conversions, Reed is sitting pretty with a 2.50 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 22/8 K/BB rate over 18 innings. The 24-year-old is a top-tier fantasy closer.

Addison Reed - R - White Sox

Addison Reed worked a scoreless ninth inning against the Twins for his 12th save of the season on Tuesday.

Reed allowed a single but limited any further damage, picking up his 12th save in 13 chances. The right-hander was shaky in his last outing, a non-save situation against the Mets on May 8, so it was nice to see him work a relatively quiet ninth to preserve the win Tuesday. The 24-year-old remains a strong fantasy option at closer.
May 15 - 1:00 AM
Addison Reed - R - White Sox

Addison Reed recorded his ninth save of the season Wednesday, working a scoreless ninth inning as the White Sox downed the Rangers.

It wasn't without some drama, as Reed hit A.J. Pierzynski and allowed a single to Ian Kinsler with two outs. He bore down, though, and got Elvis Andrus swinging to end the threat and the game. It hasn't always been pretty, but Reed is a perfect 9-for-9 in save chances and is striking out over a batter per inning. He's a top tier fantasy closer so far.

Addison Reed - R - White Sox

Addison Reed survived a shaky ninth inning for his eighth save Friday against the Rays.

It wasn't easy, as Reed gave up two hits and a walk and had the tying run on second base. However, he was able to strike out Ben Zobrist swinging to end it. The 24-year-old has a 1.64 ERA and 12/4 K/BB ratio across 11 innings this season and has the potential to emerge as one of the game's top closers.

Addison Reed - R - White Sox

Addison Reed converted his fourth save with a scoreless inning in Sunday's win over the Indians.

Reed allowed a two-out walk to Carlos Santana but then got Jason Giambi to fly out to preserve the two-run victory. The hard-thrower is now 4-for-4 in save chances this season and has given up just one hit and no runs while striking out six over six frames.
Apr 14 - 4:27 PM
Addison Reed - R - White Sox

Addison Reed is 3-for-3 in save chances and picked up a win in his other appearance this season.

The hard-thrower has permitted just one hit and has struck out four over four innings. Reed went through his ups and downs last season, winding up with a 4.75 ERA, but he has the upside to be one of the top closers in the American League.
Apr 12 - 12:50 PM
Addison Reed - R - White Sox

Addison Reed gave up a two-run homer Thursday in a loss to the Brewers.

Josh Prince took Reed yard in the seventh, which ended up being the difference in the ballgame. Reed posted a 4.75 ERA as Chicago's closer last season, but his 54/18 K/BB ratio over 55 innings indicates that his best days are likely ahead of him. He could be a top-10 closer in fantasy leagues before the year is out.

Addison Reed - R - White Sox

White Sox general manager Rick Hahn endorsed Addison Reed as the team's closer on Tuesday, but also left the door open for other relievers to emerge.

Reed was shaky at times after taking over the closer role last May, ultimately finishing with a 4.75 ERA, but his secondary numbers were very solid. Assuming the White Sox stick with him at closer, this could be a good year to get him at a discount in fantasy leagues.

Addison Reed - R - White Sox

Addison Reed collected his 28th save of the season in Tuesday's 3-2 defeat of the Royals.

Reed retired both batters he faced in the brief and easy outing. The 23-year-old right-hander has a rough 4.82 ERA and 1.41 WHIP in 52 1/3 innings this season, but he's still been a valuable fantasy commodity.
