Picks up save Wednesday
Webb pitched a scoreless inning with no strikeouts or walks to earn the save in Wednesday's 9-7 win over the Orioles.
Analyse
After Daniel Palencia (elbow) landed on the injured list back in mid-June, Webb has stepped up as the primary closer for the Cubs, and he now has three saves in four chances since Palencia went out. The righty ceded a save opportunity to Trent Thornton on Tuesday, though Webb was called on in a high-leverage spot earlier in the game. Overall, the 32-year-old has a 3.18 ERA and 47 strikeouts across 39.2 innings this season, making him a fairly effective relief option to date.

Earns another save Sunday
Webb allowed a hit and a walk across two scoreless innings of relief to earn the save in Sunday's 6-4 win over the Cardinals. He struck out one.
Analyse
Webb worked the eighth and ninth innings on 27 pitches to record his third save of the season. The righty has earned two of those saves in the last seven games, which corresponds roughly with when Daniel Palencia (elbow) hit the injured list. Webb should continue to be Chicago's top option for saves at the moment, but his fantasy value will take a hit sometime after the All-Star break when Palencia is able to return and slide back into the closer role.
