20 save sources ranked by recent workload, through 2026-09-13.
20 pitchers with a real claim on save chances, ranked by workload. The usage window ends 2026-09-13, so last night is not in the data yet and this is a workload report rather than a call on tonight, saying so is more useful than implying otherwise.
The most pitches thrown across the window. Volume is the leading indicator of a scheduled day off, and of the committee that tends to follow one.

9 of these pitchers appeared at least twice inside a three-day window. That is the pattern worth tracking: back-to-back usage is what turns a clean closer job into a committee for a night.
Rest is counted from the dates a pitcher actually appeared, not from a "pitched yesterday" flag. That distinction matters: such a flag is relative to when the data was built, so on any day the feed has not refreshed it quietly shifts by one and reports a pitcher as having thrown last night when he threw the night before. Dates cannot drift that way.
The window is three days, so "3+ days" is a floor rather than a measurement, it means no appearance in the window, which is everything the source knows.
Only pitchers with a genuine claim on saves appear here, measured by the same closer-confidence score the depth charts use. A workload report covering every reliever would be longer and would answer nothing.

Final Value = Raw Projection × MasterConfidence × TeamContext. Each layer answers one question - no overlap.
Recency weighting: prior seasons contribute by recency (more recent = more weight) and sample size (more PA = more weight).
Shrinkage: observed rates regress toward position-specific population means by an amount inversely proportional to sample size. Catches small-sample outliers.
Quality-of-contact adjustments: xwOBA, barrel rate, and bat-tracking metrics replace luck-driven outcome stats with skill-driven ones.
PT modeling: projected PA is anchored to workload tier (full-time, regular, platoon, backup catcher) using historical role distributions.
Monte Carlo: N simulated seasons per player using projected mean + uncertainty, producing P10 / P50 / P90 distribution and bust%.
Confidence layers: four orthogonal multipliers: Roster (depth chart), Role (PT certainty), Sample (career PA), Market (consensus alignment). The Audit tab shows all four for every player.
VAR: Value Above Replacement at the player's primary position. Replacement levels are floored per position so SS scarcity doesn't artificially inflate stable middle infielders.
