Records sixth save Leasure picked up the save in a 4-3 win over the Twins on Wednesday, allowing one hit and one walk with no strikeouts in a scoreless ninth inning.

Impact Leasure turned in his sixth save of the season, and it was also his fourth consecutive scoreless outing. The right-hander had a 4.62 ERA for the year through July 28, but he's been exceptional out of the Chicago bullpen since the start of August. Over his last 14 innings, Leasure has a 2.57 ERA, 0.71 WHIP and 22:4 K:BB with four saves to enhance his ERA to 4.08 for the campaign.

Picks up fifth save Leasure retired all four batters faced to earn the save in Monday's 6-5 win at Minnesota. He struck out two.

Impact The Chicago reliever required only 14 pitches to notch his first four-out save of the season. With Leasure, Grant Taylor, Mike Vasil, and Steven Wilson all collecting saves in August for the White Sox, the team is in a full blown closer-by-committee situation. Through 52 total frames, Leasure has pitched to a 4.15 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and impressive 11.8 K/9, which should keep him in the mix for occasional save opportunities going forward.

Handles ninth inning Leasure struck out two and walked one across a scoreless inning of work Saturday against the Twins.

Impact Leasure has two of the White Sox's last three saves, but he handled the eighth inning, with Grant Taylor taking the ninth in a recent appearance Monday. Taylor didn't pitch Saturday, but Leasure effectively handled the ninth frame with a four-run lead. Regardless of the exact split moving forward, saves aren't likely to be plentiful for Leasure, but he has worked nine innings in August, allowing only two earned runs while maintaining a 16:2 K:BB.

Grabs fourth save Leasure picked up the save in Tuesday's win over the Tigers, striking out the only batter he faced.

Impact After Mike Vasil surrendered a three-run homer to Colt Keith in the ninth to trim Chicago's lead, Leasure was called on to face Spencer Torkelson and needed just five pitches to fan him and close out his fourth save of the season. The 26-year-old right-hander has now converted four of his eight save opportunities this year and carries a 4.17 ERA, 1.39 WHIP and 56:23 K:BB across 45.1 innings.

Notches third save Leasure didn't strike out a batter in a perfect ninth inning to earn the save in Saturday's 1-0 win against the Angels.

Impact Aaron Civale and Brandon Eisert combined to allow just one hit to the Halos through eight innings, and Leasure finished things off by retiring the side in the ninth on just nine pitches. The White Sox haven't had a consistent closer this season, with Leasure and Grant Taylor tied for the team lead with three apiece. The pair seem likely to continue splitting ninth-inning work, which doesn't offer much fantasy upside for the 42-69 White Sox.

Picks up second save Leasure earned the save in Wednesday's 2-1 win over Toronto, allowing one hit while striking out two in a scoreless ninth inning.

Impact Leasure made quick work of the Blue Jays, striking out the first two batters he faced before working around an Alejandro Kirk two-out single. It's the second save of the year for Leasure and his first since May 20. The 26-year-old right-hander sports a 4.18 ERA with a 1.55 WHIP and 39 strikeouts through 32.1 innings this season.
