With closer Brad Hand being dealt to the Indians on Thursday, Cincinnati Reds closer Raisel Iglesias could be the best reliever on the trade market. He has a 2.36 ERA, 1.02 WHIP and 9.9 K/9 on the season and could potentially fetch a large return for the Reds. Iglesias is owed just over $11 million across 2019 and 2020. However, if Iglesias is traded he may not be closing for his new team, which would obviously hurt his value. Michael Lorenzen, Amir Garrett and Jared Hughes could all be candidates for saves in Cincy if Iglesias is dealt.

The young right-hander has posted a 1.98 ERA, four saves in five chances, and a 15/8 K/BB ratio in 13 2/3 innings of work in 2018. The only complaint from fantasy owners would be his low number of save chances, something that Iglesias has no control over. That very lack of save chances is all that keeps Iglesias from being an elite fantasy closer.

Iglesias wound up working 2/3 of an inning, allowing one run on two walks and a hit while striking out one.

Iglesias is now 3-of-4 in save chances with a 1.74 ERA and 14 strikeouts in 10 1/3 innings of work. Iglesias would be getting more buzz as one of baseball's premier closers if the Reds afforded him more save opportunities. Look for him to bounce back in his next save chance.

Cincinnati Reds closer Raisel Iglesias locked down his first save of the season on Monday, preserving a 1-0 win over the Chicago Cubs. Iglesias notched a four-out save, walking one and striking out two without allowing a hit. It was a nice bounce back after he allowed the Nationals to score a run in a non-save situation in his season debut on Sunday. The save locked down the Reds' first win of the season, improving their record to 1-3. Iglesias has loads of strikeout potential but he won't be an elite-level closer unless his team affords him more save chances. That looks unlikely to happen this season, as the Reds probably will spend most of the season in the National League Central cellar.
