RELIEVERS: Cardinals, Cubs, Mets, Diamondbacks, Twins

This week, the column takes on the Cardinals, Cubs, Mets, Diamondbacks, and Twins.

The Cardinals lost Ryan Helsley (RHP, STL) to a strained right forearm. Giovanny Gallegos (RHP, STL) is firmly the team's closer as a result. Gallegos converted five of the team's saves over the past 30 days, compared to only three for Helsley over the same period. Here are the skills year-to-date:
