3 blown saves and 6 HRs allowed in his last 23 batters since May 5. The Reds' bullpen is full chaos — Pierce Johnson and Graham Ashcraft are both ahead of Santillan in the leverage hierarchy. Fade in standard formats.

HRs in four consecutive appearances; velocity 2 mph below last year. The Reds' bullpen meltdown continues. Graham Ashcraft is leveraged ahead of him for saves. Fade in standard formats.

Inherits the Reds' 9th with Pagán out 4-8 weeks. Graham Ashcraft is a co-closer threat — recently blew a save which created some uncertainty. Santillan has the experience edge (7 saves last season). Hold and monitor usage; Ashcraft is the speculative second add.

Pagán's hamstring is a 4-8 week absence — Santillan inherits the Reds' 9th. He had 7 saves last year and a 27% K-rate this year. Graham Ashcraft is a co-closer threat (just earned his first career save), but Santillan is the priority add.

Pagán's leash is officially gone (3 blown saves, 56.8% hard-hit, 4.72 xERA). Santillan is the most likely beneficiary of a role flip. Drop Pagán in 12-team; speculate-add Santillan in deep formats.
