Fantasy: Yankees' Betances-Miller time-share highlights weekly closer grid

Every week we'll look at each team's closing situation - who's in, who's out, who's next in line - and provide fantasy-related tidbits. 

AL East

• The Blue Jays may be operating with more of a committee approach in the ninth, but rookie Miguel Castro has the team's only two saves. 
• Andrew Miller has outpitched Dellin Betances early and collected the Yankees' only two saves. Miller appears to have a leg up on Betances for now, but manager Joe Girardi could make this a matchup-based role. 

AL Central

• AL Central closers have extremely good job security for the most part. Something to watch will be if Joakim Soria can keep the job once Joe Nathan returns from injury. Soria converted all three of his save opportunities entering play Wednesday.

AL West

• Fernando Rodney's job is safe, but he hasn't done fantasy owners any favors, allowing six runs on seven hits over his last two appearances.
• Sean Doolittle could be out at least another month for the Athletics, which may be enough time for Tyler Clippard to prove he deserves to stay in the role even upon the hard-throwing lefty's return.

NL East

• Jason Grilli has gotten off to a strong start in the post-Craig Kimbrel era in Atlanta, and has likely afforded himself a longer leash.
• Jeurys Familia has taken over the Mets' closer's role after Jenrry Mejia got hit with an 80-game ban for testing positive for a performance-enhancing substance. Bobby Parnell, who was limited to one appearance last season after saving 22 games in 2013, could threaten him for the role upon his return. Parnell just began a rehab assignment. 

NL Central

• Pirates closer Mark Melancon has been throwing with diminished velocity, though manager Clint Hurdle is unconcerned.
• Aroldis Chapman has been lights out, as usual, throwing more 100-plus mph pitches than all but one player in the game, according to Baseball Savant. 

NL West

• The Dodgers haven't locked in on one pitcher yet and appear to be employing a by-committee approach to the ninth inning until Kenley Jansen returns.
• Adam Ottavino rightfully took over the closer's role in Colorado on Tuesday. He responded by striking out the side in his first save opportunity of the season and has began the 2015 campaign with five scoreless appearances.
