Scott Downs, RP, Angels

Oh, the fickle life of a closer. Jordan Walden pretty much owned the Angels job to start the season, but less than a month in has already been demoted. Enter Downs, who has yet to give up a run this season and nailed down his first two save opps. And this is why you don't draft closers early, my friends. <br><b>Key stat:</b> His highest WHIP over the last three years is 1.01. You'll take that.
