Miami Marlins RP A.J. Ramos (finger) was unavailable Tuesday, July 26, due to a jammed finger.

Fantasy Tip: Fernando Rodney could see a save chance or two this week while the team is cautious with Ramos. Rodney has a 4.50 ERA but 15 K's in 12 innings since being acquired. He's a fringe mixed leaguer with some save potential this week.

Miami Marlins RP A.J. Ramos picked up his 16th save of the season Tuesday, May 31, against the Pittsburgh Pirates, but it was anything but easy. Ramos loaded the bases in the ninth inning with nobody out, but was ultimately able to escape the jam and close it out. He ended up allowing one run on one hit and two walks, while striking out one.

Fantasy Tip: Ramos was not only fortunate to keep Miami in front, but also in keeping his own perfect record intact as well. In particular, Gregory Polanco was just a few feet from lacing a grand slam on a fly ball to deep center field. The 29-year-old has converted every one of his 16 save opportunities, though there have been times where he would get himself into trouble before escaping. Even so, he's clearly been an elite closer this season and is on pace for an All-Star berth.

Miami Marlins RP A.J. Ramos allowed one run in his one inning against the Philadelphia Phillies Monday, May 16, but was able to record his 12th save of the season.

Fantasy Tip: Ramos has allowed a run in two of his last five appearances but has not blown a save this season. Ramos should be a starting option in mixed leagues because he should have plenty of save changes moving forward.
