Description: Addison Reed has officially been named Chicago's closer by White Sox manager Robin Ventura, Mark Gonzales of the Chicago Tribune reports.
Insight: The announcement is something of a formality, as Reed is the only White Sox pitcher who has picked up a save this month. He's the only member of the Chicago bullpen fantasy owners should target right now.

Description: Addison Reed picked up his fourth save of the season on Friday. Reed ran into trouble when Alex Rios lost a ball in the sun, but the closer was able to work out of trouble.
Insight: The hard-throwing rookie is perfect in save chances since he took over the closer role earlier this month. Reed has a 4.35 ERA, but all six runs he's given up this season came in one outing. He's been flawless in his other 12 innings.
