.The Washington Nationals acquired relief pitcher Kyle Barraclough from the Miami Marlins on Wednesday in exchange for international bonus pool money. Barraclough struggled in 2018 and was removed from the closer's role eventually. He finished with a 4.20 ERA, 1.33 WHIP, 10 saves and a career-low 9.7 K/9 over 61 outings (55 2/3 innings). The right-hander has always have problems throwing strikes, too, with a career 5.5 walks per nine innings. He could be a key piece for the Nats bullpen, but he won't have any fantasy appeal.

The Miami Marlins placed relief pitcher Kyle Barraclough (back) on the 10-day disabled list on Friday with lower back stiffness. Outfielder Rafael Ortega was recalled from Triple-A New Orleans and relief pitcher Drew Rucinski (groin) has also been activated from the DL. It's been a bad couple weeks for Barraclough to put it nicely. He allowed 14 hits (three homers) and 14 earned runs in seven outings (5 2/3 innings) since July 21 to lose the closer role. Drew Steckenrider should be the favorite in the ninth now for the Fish, although Tayon Guerrero or Adam Conley could see some chances, too. Ortega was hitting .275 with only two home runs, 28 RBI and 12 steals in 92 games with New Orleans. He could see decent playing time in the outfield, but he's not much of a fantasy option.

Manager Don Mattingly said Barraclough will be removed from the closer role, Joe Frisaro of MLB.com reports.

Miami Marlins manager Don Mattingly said that closer Kyle Barraclough will be removed from the closer's role in order to regroup. The Marlins will use a committee in the ninth inning. Barraclough has allowed 12 earned runs on 12 hits (three home runs) in his last six outings covering 4 2/3 innings, including three straight blown saves. Drew Steckenrider figures to be the next man up for saves in Miami, but Javy Guerra (who recorded the save Monday) and Adam Conley could also be mixed in.

Miami Marlins closer Kyle Barraclough lasted just one-third of an inning in a save situation against the Cardinals on Monday, giving up two hits, two walks and one earned run before reliever Javy Guerra was brought in to put out the fire with the bases loaded. Manager Don Mattingly said he wouldn't make any immediate changes in the closer's role after the game, but he also didn't give Barraclough a vote of confidence moving forward. Barraclough allowed just one run in 11 2/3 innings in May and was 7-for-7 in save chances in June. However, he was 2-for-5 in save chances in July and gave up nine earned runs in 9 2/3 frames. Before Monday, Barraclough blew three consecutive saves. Poor control has been his biggest issue, as 13 of his 21 pitches on Monday were balls. If you own Barraclough, you should be very concerned. Not only should you bench him for now, but you should also think about picking up Drew Steckenrider, who is likely next in line for saves should Mattingly make a change.

Miami Marlins manager Don Mattingly said closer Kyle Barraclough will remain in the closer's role for now, but the manager admitted that he'll be "top-stepping" it in the dugout until Barraclough can fix his fastball command. Barraclough has mostly been solid for the Fish since taking over the ninth-inning duties, but he's faltered of late, allowing 10 hits (three homers) and 11 earned runs in his last five outings covering 4 1/3 innings. He's 0-2 with three blown saves in that time. His leash is shortening and Drew Steckenrider would likely be next in line for saves if Barraclough doesn't turn it around. If you're speculating for saves, it'd be wise to stash Steckenrider now.

Miami Marlins closer Kyle Barraclough allowed two hits in the ninth but was able to escape from trouble without allowing a run, earning his ninth save of the season. Barraclough has looked solid in his role as the closer and now carries a 1.28 ERA to go with a 47/23 K/BB ratio. He has converted nine of 12 save opportunities. Barraclough has had his name come up in trade rumors with the deadline approaching. If he is moved to a place where he won't see save opportunities his fantasy value will diminish. For now he's locked in as the Marlins closer and remains a must-own. Owners must be aware of the trade potential however.
