MLB Player Profile: Sean Doolittle

More from .Washington Nationals closer Sean Doolittle (foot) is confident that his foot injury is behind him and has new inserts for his cleats. Doolittle missed most of the second half with a stress reaction in his foot, but he was lights-out when he was healthy. The left-hander posted a 1.60 ERA, 0.60 WHIP, 25 saves and 60 K's in 45 innings. He'll be a top-tier fantasy closer heading into the 2019 season.
