LAS VEGAS CELEBRATES CLOSER ISAACSON'S 100TH SIMBL SAVE
Hustlers Fireman Leads New Wave Of Young Stud Relievers & Closers Emerging In SIMBL New File Era
San Diego's reigning SL Fireman Of The Year Willie Roger DeMarco (above left) celebrates his 200th SIMBL career save recently moving himself up the all-time SIMBL career saves list at just 25 years old. DeMarco along with such young phenom relievers such as Las Vegas' Cedric Issacson are emerging now in the SIMBL New File Era who were specifically drafted in the 2019 SIMBL New File Era Inaugural Draft or in more recent drafts to be such commodities to the teams that selected them.

Las Vegas closer Cedric Issacson capped a three save in three games run with his 100th SIMBL career save last week that also saw the Hustler's eclipse .500 for the first time this season. "It feels good. I hope to be the closer for the Hustler's for a longtime. Like DeMarco over in San Diego," said Issacson after the game referencing Willie Roger DeMarco who has been San Diego's shutdown guy for the past five seasons and reached 200 career saves earlier this year.
Issacson, DeMarco, and Asheville's Dez Jordan represent the first wave of young pitchers specifically drafted to be closers in the SIMBL New File Era. While older pitchers like Barrett Jenkins and Oregon's Andrew Stephens are fighting it out for SIMBL New File Era career save total supremacy, these younger pitchers all have their eyes set on the record books. Though, ironically, Calgary's payroll issues landed Jenkins in Asheville where he has quietly taken over fireman duties from the two-time SL Fireman Of The Year Jordan. Still, these mid-20s phenoms are already penciled in for save 300, 400 and beyond.
Still, young as those three are, there is always someone younger and hungrier a half-step behind in the SIMBL and Whitby's Keith Patterson has had a stunning start to the season racking up 16 saves already and is on pace for a record shattering 68. Meanwhile, SL Rookie of the Year Candidate Juan Carlos Bermudez of Boston has nailed down 10 saves already while giving up just one earned run in 17 appearances.
Issacson, Jordan and Patterson all are former first round draft picks.
Here are the current SIMBL career save totals for pitchers under 26 years-old as of the 5/19/2025 league date:
206 Willie Roger DeMarco San Diego
185 Dez Jordan Asheville
100 Cedric Issacson Las Vegas
25 Cory Walton Rochester
20 Keith Patterson Whitby
17 Juan Carlos Bermudez Boston
