Rivera hung with five loss: The Mets snapped an eighth-inning tie Tuesday when Damion Easley was hit by Saul Rivera's two-strike pitch with the bases loaded, and they handed a slim lead to a shaky relief corps that has struggled badly without injured closer Billy Wagner. Rivera (3-5) plunked Damion Easley with a 1-2 pitch Tuesday that umpires ruled hit him on the helmet. Washington manager Manny Acta argued vehemently the ball sailed over Easley's head. He got all four umps to discuss the play, but the call stood. "I just thought the ball hit the bat (at first), but they got it right," Acta said. "It is the human element of the game."

Fantasy Analysis

Rivera is nothing more than a low-end middle reliever for the deepest of NL-only leagues that use true middle men.
