The erosion of reliable ninth-inning options for the Los Angeles Angels and Texas Rangers is forcing a recalibration of fantasy baseball bullpen strategy, according to CBS Sports. Two pitchers, Louis Varland and Tanner Scott, have emerged as the top waiver or trade targets as those two franchises’ relief situations deteriorate. Varland, who has shown swing-and-miss stuff in limited opportunities, and Scott, a left-hander with a recent history of high-leverage work for Miami, represent the most viable pathways to saves in an environment where incumbent closers are losing grip. The article advises managers to act before league-wide awareness catches up. The unresolved tension lies in whether either pitcher can hold the role through September or whether the Angels and Rangers will further destabilize their own pen by cycling through alternatives.
