Angels | Scott Downs moved to closer role

Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim RP Scott Downs will move into the closer role with RP Jordan Walden moving to duties in the seventh and eighth innings on a temporary basis.

Fantasy Tip: Emphasis on "temporary basis" .... Clearly, Scioscia is trying to make a statement to his struggling ball club. Hopefully, this is just a case of Walden trying to work on some things. Downs is a skilled reliever worth a stab for saves in any format, but you shouldn't drop Walden or give up anything of long-term value for the fill-in stopper while counting on a year's worth of saves.
