David Weathers an underrated Late Inning Reliever/Closer--Fantasy Focus

Jeff Erickson today with Steve Moyer on Fantasy Focus both agree David Weathers has flown under the radar this year in the Late Inning/Game Finishing/Closer spot (he can do all these things).

• Jeff adds he has "multi-inning saves," and he thinks "that's overlooked sometimes vs guys who just get 3 outs."

Weathers so far has 14 multi-inning appearances, entering 13 times with ROB. Several of his appearances are for 5, 6 and once for 9 outs. If you have a guy who'll never go more than 3 outs, YOU OFTEN NEED AN ENTIRE OTHER PERSON TO GET THE JOB DONE. SO PEOPLE LIKE WEATHERS ARE DOING A JOB THAT WOULD REQUIRE 2 PEOPLE ON ANOTHER TEAM. He has a 1.04 whip and has only given up 2 HR according to Baseball Reference.
