Daniel Palencia's breakout season is derailed by a right shoulder strain, forcing the Cubs into a closer-by-committee next week. Keller and Kittredge are the early names to monitor for saves in Chicago.

Will Vest in Detroit should inherit the bulk of ninth-inning chances with Finnegan sidelined, though the Tigers bullpen may rotate save opportunities depending on matchups and usage.

Muñoz leads a cadre of high-end closers with 34 saves and elite ratios, while Díaz, Suárez, Iglesias and Jansen remain pivotal across the league. Chapman’s late-season surge for Boston stands out amid a chaotic closer landscape, with Pagán and Megill among the other notable late-inning arms vying for holds or saves.
