Corey Knebel could handle the save chances for the Brewers

Milwaukee Brewers manager Craig Counsell said on Friday the team was giving relief pitcher Neftali Feliz a break from closing duties while noting that Corey Knebel has been outstanding.

What It Means:

All indications are that Knebel will get the next save chance for the Brewers while Feliz tries to get back on track while pitching in a different role. Feliz is 8-for-9 in save chances but owns a 6.19 ERA. Knebel has 11 holds in 19 appearances this year and should be scooped up in all leagues by save-hungry teams.

Knebel owns a 1.00 ERA, 1.00 WHIP, and 29 strikeouts in 18 innings pitched this season.
