Hangs on for 15th save Faucher earned the save Saturday against Texas, allowing one run on two hits and one walk in the ninth inning.

Impact It wasn't easy for Faucher, who stranded the possible tying and go-ahead runs by getting Joc Pederson to pop up to end the game. The right-hander has a career-high 15 saves as Miami's primary closer this season, recording a respectable 3.38 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 56:23 K:BB over 58.2 innings. That said, Tyler Phillips and Lake Bachar are also in the ninth-inning mix for the Marlins.

On the season, the 29-year-old has converted 14 of 19 save chances while adding seven holds and posting a 3.28 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 56:22 K:BB across 57.2 innings.

Registers 13th save Faucher struck out one in a perfect inning to earn the save in Thursday's 7-4 win over the Mets.

Impact Faucher took care of business on a tidy seven pitches (six strikes) to secure his second save in as many outings. It's been a tough August for the right-hander -- he's taken two losses while adding three saves and a hold, and he's given up four runs (two earned) over 10 innings. On the year, he's 13-for-18 in save chances with six holds, a 3.35 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 49:21 K:BB through 51 innings. Faucher looks to still have the edge over Ronny Henriquez for save chances, though the Marlins haven't produced a lot of chances this month.

Nets 12th save Faucher earned a save Monday against Atlanta, striking out one and allowing one run on one hit and no walks in the ninth inning.

Impact Faucher served up a solo home run to Drake Baldwin, but he hung on to record his 12th save of the season. The right-hander should remain one of Miami's top ninth-inning options to wrap up the year, though the team's committee approach at closer can be frustrating for fantasy managers at times. Faucher has a 3.42 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 48:21 K:BB over 50 innings.

Notches 11th save Faucher earned a save against the Yankees on Saturday, striking out one batter in a perfect inning of work.

Impact The Marlins led 2-0 when Faucher entered in the ninth frame, and he preserved the shutout by retiring the side in order on 12 pitches. Miami's bullpen hierarchy has been difficult to nail down for much of the season, but it appears Faucher could be settling into the closer role -- he's picked up three of the team's past four saves, with the only save that went to another pitcher during that span being a four-inning conversion by Tyler Phillips. Faucher has earned the confidence of manager Clayton McCullough by giving up just two runs over 10.2 frames while posting a 13:4 K:BB across 10 appearances since the start of July.
