Morrow retired the final batter of Friday's 6-2 win over the Giants via strikeout to record his 11th save of the season.
EDGE Analysis
Morrow didn't start the ninth inning, but after the Giants got a little rally going, the Cubs' closer came on with two runners on. He made quick work of Mac Williamson on three pitches, and Morrow is now 11-of-12 in save opportunities this season with a miniscule 1.04 ERA.

Morrow struck out all three batters he faced in Sunday's 6-1 win over the Reds.
EDGE Analysis
It wasn't a save situation for Morrow, but he shut the door on the Reds nonetheless. The Cubs' closer threw 13 pitches (10 for strikes) and breezed through the ninth inning. Morrow now has a stellar 1.13 ERA and looks like one of the best fantasy relief options moving forward on a Chicago team that should offer him plenty of opportunities to build on his 10 saves.

Morrow picked up save No. 10 of the season in Tuesday's win over the Braves, as he tossed a clean inning with no hits allowed and no strikeouts.
EDGE Analysis
Morrow blew a save on May 5 in St. Louis, but he's been dominant since then, throwing four scoreless innings with three saves. Morrow isn't racking up strikeouts at the same rate as other top closers, as he has 13 across his 15 innings of work, but the 33-year-old's 10 saves and 1.20 ERA are both solid marks.

Morrow picked up his ninth save of the season Saturday against the White Sox, striking out two and walking one in a scoreless inning.
EDGE Analysis
Morrow's save was a rare one which came with a four-run lead. He entered with no outs and two men on in an 8-4 game after Mike Montgomery had gotten into a bit of trouble. He struck out the next two batters before allowing a walk, which brought Jose Abreu to the plate with a chance to tie the game. He managed to get Abreu to ground out, earning him his ninth save in 10 opportunities this season.

Morrow set the side down in order to pick up his eighth save of the season in Tuesday's win over the Marlins.
EDGE Analysis
Morrow was the picture of efficiency in this one, as he induced three groundouts on a total of just five pitches. The 33-year-old blew his first save of the season on Saturday, but he's now logged consecutive scoreless outings since then to lower his ERA to a stellar 1.38.

Morrow blew his first save of the season in Saturday's loss to the Cardinals, as he allowed two earned runs on two hits and a walk in an inning of work.
EDGE Analysis
Morrow came on with the Cubs up 6-4 and walked the first batter he faced. After striking out Matt Carpenter, he allowed a single to Jose Martinez and then a two-run double to Marcell Ozuna to give up the lead. Even after the hiccup, Morrow has a stellar 1.64 ERA, and he should get back on track in short order.

Morrow recorded a one-two-three inning for his seventh save of the season Sunday against the Brewers.
EDGE Analysis
Morrow came on in a two-run game, inducing a pair of groundball outs and a flyout while throwing 10 of 14 pitches for strikes. Save opportunities came slowly for the right-hander at the start of the year, but he's now notched saves in each of his last five appearances and has still yet to allow a run in 2018.

Morrow gave up two hits but kept the Brewers off the board in Thursday's 1-0 win to secure his fifth save of the season.
EDGE Analysis
Morrow started the ninth inning by allowing a Lorenzo Cain single but then got Christian Yelich to ground into a double play to get out of trouble. The 33-year-old has been steady for his new team, as he's now a perfect 5-for-5 in save opportunities and he has yet to allow a run this season.

Morrow allowed two hits while walking one and striking out one in the ninth inning to record the save Sunday against the Rockies.
EDGE Analysis
Morrow allowed two singles and a walk to load the bases before shutting the door on the Rockies to secure his fifth save of the season. This was his shakiest outing of the season, but still escaped without allowing his first earned run. He remains a secure source of saves.
