MLB:
With Clase on paid leave, how should fantasy managers re-balance Guardians bullpen usage in the short term?
Qwiket AI:
Expect Cade Smith to take on the primary closer role, at least temporarily. In the near term, expect the bullpen to mix save chances among Smith, Phil Maton, and a committee approach. If Clase remains out beyond a few weeks, the Guardians may lean on a closer-by-committee strategy, driving volatility in saves and limiting upside for any single reliever.
