Picks up extra-inning win Iglesias (2-2) got the win Tuesday after tossing a perfect inning while striking out two against the Reds.

Impact Iglesias was tasked with stranding the ghost runner in the 10th and did so with ease, retiring the side on just seven pitches. Atlanta went on to walk it off in the bottom of the frame, leaving Iglesias victorious. He's now posted four consecutive scoreless outings with an 8:0 K:BB over that span but sits tied for 15th with six saves thus far.

Secures sixth save Iglesias allowed a hit and struck out three in a scoreless inning to earn the save in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Dodgers.

Impact Iglesias has strung together three scoreless outings for the first time this season, adding six strikeouts in that span. The veteran closer had some struggles in April, but he appears to be getting on track now. Those issues are reflected in his 4.85 ERA, but he's added a 1.00 WHIP and 15:2 K:BB while converting six of eight save attempts over 13 innings this season.

Nails down fifth save Iglesias notched a save against the Rockies on Monday, allowing one hit and striking out one batter in one scoreless inning.

Impact Iglesias had a comfortable three-run lead to work with when he entered in the ninth frame, and he cruised through three outs, needing just nine pitches (eight of which were strikes) to secure the save despite giving up a two-out double. It was a promising bounce-back for the veteran closer after he allowed four runs over two innings across his previous two appearances. Iglesias holds an unimpressive 5.73 ERA on the campaign, but he has a more promising 10:2 K:BB and 1.09 WHIP over 11 frames and has been successful on five of seven save chances.

Blows save, snags win Saturday Iglesias (1-2) allowed one run on two hits over one inning, taking a blown save but earning the extra-inning win Saturday versus the Diamondbacks.

Impact Iglesias gave up a piece of history in the ninth inning, allowing Eugenio Suarez's fourth home run of the game. It came at a bad time for Iglesias, as it tied the game at 7-7 just after Atlanta had rallied ahead in the eighth. The right-hander is now 4-for-6 in save chances this season, and he's been scored upon in five of his 10 outings, allowing a homer in each of those instances. He's at a putrid 6.30 ERA despite a passable 1.10 WHIP and 9:2 K:BB across 10 innings. Prior to Saturday, no other reliever had logged a save for Atlanta, but Dylan Lee was able to protect a one-run lead in the 10th inning to earn one. Iglesias' role as closer isn't in immediate danger, but he needs to get back on track soon.

Notches fourth save Iglesias recorded one strikeout and didn't allow a baserunner in a scoreless ninth inning to earn the save in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Twins.

Impact Iglesias was handed a one-run advantage and needed just 11 pitches to retire the side in order. The 35-year-old closer has already given up three home runs through eight outings this year -- nearly matching 2024's regular-season total of four homers allowed -- but he's otherwise pitched well and has a 3.38 ERA and 8:1 K:BB while going 4-for-5 in save chances.

Converts third save Iglesias pitched a perfect inning to earn the save in Friday's 6-4 win over the Twins.

Impact Atlanta's five-run rally in the eighth inning created a save situation, and Iglesias took care of business. The closer hadn't pitched since Saturday -- Atlanta went 1-3 over its previous three games, and the one win didn't yield a save opportunity. He's allowed a run in three of his seven appearances this season while converting three of four save chances. The right-hander is at a 3.86 ERA, 0.71 WHIP and 7:1 K:BB across seven innings.

Secures second save Iglesias earned the save in Saturday's 5-4 win over the Rays, allowing one run on one hit in the ninth inning.

Impact Iglesias was able to protect a two-run lead in the ninth, though he did allow a two-out solo shot to Jonathan Aranda. On the season, the veteran owns a 4.50 ERA, 0.83 WHIP and 7:1 K:BB across six innings while converting two of his three save chances. It's worth noting he has yielded three home runs already after surrendering just four across 69.1 innings in 2024.

Earns first save of 2025 Iglesias secured the save in Tuesday's 7-5 win over Philadelphia, allowing one walk in a scoreless ninth inning.

Impact Iglesias' only blemish came on a Bryce Harper walk, but the 35-year-old closer captured his first save of the 2025 campaign after getting Alec Bohm to pop out to third base. It was a nice bounce-back effort for Iglesias after he blew his first save chance against the Dodgers on April 2. He needed 15 pitches to get through Tuesday's game, so he should be available for another save opportunity should it present itself for the next two games of the series.
