DL Saves: Juan Cruz

With Kansas City Royals' closer Joakim Soria finally hitting the DL (seems like he has been hurt all year), Juan Cruz is now a name to know to get some saves for your team. He has been a great setup man for Soria and that skill should translate well too the 9th inning. He has 10 Ks in just over 13 innings, which is a rate you like to see in your closer. A 1.88 ERA is a good sign as well. Make no mistake, Soria is the man in KC, but until he is healthy, grab Cruz. A note on the Soria injury - 'a sore shoulder' could be nothing serious, could be bad. Watch this situation to make sure he'll be back. - Scout Monkey (scout_monkey@gmx.com)
