Diaz struck out two in a perfect seventh inning to claim his 31st save of the season Tuesday in the Mets' 5-2 win over the Marlins in the first game of a doubleheader.
Since blowing back-to-back save chances against the Nationals earlier this month, Diaz has responded by allowing only one unearned run over his subsequent seven appearances while nabbing three saves along the way. Though his 3.50 ERA is higher than fantasy managers might have anticipated, a 2.52 FIP, 1.07 WHIP and a 25.2 K-BB% all exemplify how dependable he's been at the back of the New York bullpen, despite some high-profile blowups.
