FACTS/FLUKES: Cishek, Collmenter, A. Gonzalez, Belt, Yelich

Cishek looks like a reliable ninth inning option ... Steve Cishek (RHP, MIA) had another successful season as the Marlins' closer, converting 39 of 43 save opportunities. An inflated hit rate prevented him from posting another sub-3.00 ERA, but he's likely to be one of the top closers in the National League again in 2015.
