Brian Fuentes and Fernando Rodney stand in his way for saves, but Kevin Jepsen's skills could be the best of the three if he can improve his control. Developing a slider/cutter last year helped the groundball-friendly righty, making him useful in deep leagues last year. Jepsen boasts the skills that will warrant speculation in AL-only leagues; you can probably wait until after mixed drafts for him, but don't ignore his upside.
