Craig Kimbrel signed with the Phillies in January in an effort to solidify the back-end of the club's bullpen. He's done that so far, converting all seven of his save opportunities through Thursday night and pitching well with the exception of two appearances where he gave up three runs or more. Kimbrel was the National League Rookie of the Year in 2011, and he led the league in saves four years in a row between 2011 and 2014. An eight-time All-Star, he had to wait until 2018 to pitch in a World Series, with his Red Sox squad prevailing over the Dodgers in five games.

A border-line future Hall of Famer, Kimbrel recently reached the 400-save plateau, becoming one of only eight relievers in that exclusive club.
