FACTS/FLUKES: Jansen, J. Báez, S. Gray, Duvall, Vázquez

Jansen keeps piling up the saves ... Despite not having the elite skills of Edwin Díaz (RHP, NYM) or Emanuel Clase (RHP, CLE), Kenley Jansen (RHP, BOS) continues to post impressive saves totals. Leaving out the short 2020 season, he has averaged 40 saves per season since 2014, far better than anyone else over that time frame. As he enters his age 35 season are his skills intact enough to continue this run in Boston?
