Latest Fantasy Rumors
Uncertain role
PColorado Rockies
June 2, 2023
Bird's recent struggles have coincided with a rough patch for closer Pierce Johnson, leaving roles at the back of the Rockies' bullpen uncertain.
ANALYSIS
The relief picture is messy for the 24-win Rockies. Daniel Bard, who racked up 54 saves over the prior two years, has been sharp over 14 appearances since missing the beginning of the season due to anxiety issues and is likely higher in the pecking order than Bird if Johnson is relieved of his closing duties. Justin Lawrence has also racked up seven holds compared to Bird's three.
