The Miami Herald reports that Renyel Pinto is having an excellent season in the Marlins bullpen. "He has a certain swagger when he goes out there because he knows he's good," catcher Mike Rabelo said. "He's been awesome, taking the ball every day for us no matter if it's righties or lefties. We've been able to rely on him every day. He has great confidence, and you need that in the game. He also has a nasty changeup. Everything's clicking for him." (Updated 05/12/2008).

Fantasy Analysis
The 25-year-old Venezuelan lefty has given up just two runs in 25 2/3 innings this season for an 0.70 ERA. He put the Nationals down in order in the eighth on Friday, then he set down three straight batters after allowing a walk on Sunday. He is of some use to Fantasy owners in deeper NL-only leagues that use true middle relievers and he's also become a decent cheap source for holds. (Updated 05/12/2008).
