Two relievers delivered 40+ save seasons in 2024: St. Louis Cardinals' flamethrower Ryan Helsley, and Cleveland Guardians standout Emmanuel Clase. Now, that might make you think the position is top-heavy, but a peek further down the list of saves leaders paints a different portrait.

Six different relievers compiled 30+ saves last season. Fourteen of them closed out 20 or more games in 2024.
