Get all your latest up-to-date daily bullpen news by following @mlbdailybullpen.American League Bullpen ReportBaltimore Orioles(CL) Shaky Jim Johnson (R)–Was charged with his ninth blown-save of the season Wednesday after surrendering one run on two hits and one walk in the ninth inning. Johnson has now blown saves in back-to-back games, and could be on his way out as the team's closer. 16 PC-10 ST (8/14/13) (SU) Darren O’Day (R)--Earned his 18th hold of the season Wednesday after pitching 0.2 innings of relief allowing one hit and one walk in the seventh inning. O'Day needed 21 pitches to work through the frame, forcing two fly ball outs to get the job done. 21 PC-12 ST (8/14/13) (MR) Tommy Hunter (R)--Pitched three innings of relief on Wednesday retiring all 12 batters he faced in order. Hunter may be in line to receive some save opportunities in the near future with Jim Johnson struggling, so in deep leagues he is  a solid add in case a change was to be made in the closer role. 32 PC-25 ST (8/14/13)Boston Red Sox(CL) Solid Koji Uehara (R)–Picked up the win on Tuesday after pitching 1.1 innings of relief on extra innings retiring all four batters he faced in order.

Tazawa forced two ground ball outs to record the first two outs of the eighth inning, in what was a nice bounce back game after allowing an earned-run his last time out. 11 PC-7 ST (8/15/13) (MR)  Craig Breslow (L)--Pitched a scoreless seventh inning on Thursday retiring all three batters he faced in order. Breslow needed 16 pitches to work through the frame, forcing two fly ball outs while striking out one batter to get the job done. 16 PC-8 ST (8/15/13) Injured--Joel Hanrahan (Forearm), Andrew Bailey (Shoulder), Matt Thornton (Oblique)Chicago White Sox(CL) Solid Addison Reed (R)–Picked up the win on Tuesday night after pitching two innings of relief allowing two hits on 32 pitches thrown.

Jones was charged with his fourth blown-save of the season in the appearance, and has now allowed an earned-run in back-to-back games. 18 PC-9 ST (8/15/13)Cleveland Indians(CL) Solid Chris Perez (R)--Picked up the win on Wednesday despite being charged with his fourth blown-save after allowing one run on two hits in two innings of relief. Perez improved to 5-2 on the season, and has now pitched consecutive days, but with a scheduled day off on Thursday, he should be good to go for Friday. 25 PC-16 ST (8/14/13) (SU) Joe Smith (R)--Earned his second save of the season Wednesday after pitching a scoreless 12th inning retiring all three batters he faced in order. Smith needed only nine pitches to work through the frame, forcing one ground ball out and one fly ball out while striking out one batter to get the job done. 9 PC-8 ST (8/14/13) (MR) Marc Rzepczynski (L)--Pitched two innings of scoreless relief on Monday night allowing two walks while striking out two batters on 38 pitches thrown.

Benoit has now pitched back-to-back days, so there is a chance we will see Jose Veras used in the closer role Friday in an attempt to keep Benoit fresh for the stretch run. 14 PC-8 ST (8/15/13) (SU) Jose Veras (R)--Picked up his second hold of the season Wednesday despite surrendering one run on one hit and two walks in the eighth inning. Veras has now pitched back-to-back days, so expect him to get the day off on Thursday. 16 PC-8 ST (8/14/13) (MR) Bruce Rondon (R)--Earned his second hold of the season Thursday after recording the final two outs of the eighth inning. Rondon faced only two batters in the appearance, forcing two fly ball outs on nine pitches thrown to secure the Tigers lead heading to the ninth inning. 9 PC-5 ST (8/15/13) Injured– Octavio Dotel (Shoulder)Houston Astros(CL) Committee Josh Fields (R)--Recorded his second save of the season Wednesday night after pitching a scoreless 11th inning allowing one hit while striking out one batter on 14 pitches thrown.

This was a terrible outing from Blackley, but he got lucky that his teammate Chia-Jen Lo got him off the hook. 12 PC-5 ST (8/7/13) (CL) Committee Chia-Jen Lo (R)--Earned his first save of the season Tuesday night after recording the final four outs of the contest on 23 pitches thrown. Lo has yet to give up an earned-run since being called up from the minors, and could become the front runner for save chances if he keeps it up. 23 PC-16 ST (8/13/13)Kansas City Royals(CL) Solid Greg Holland (R)–Pitched a scoreless ninth inning on Tuesday night in a non-save situation allowing one hit while striking out one batter on 15 pitches thrown.

Crow forced one ground ball out while striking out two batters to keep the Royals within striking distance. 18 PC-11 ST (8/13/13) (MR) Kelvin Herrera (R)--Took the loss on Tuesday night after surrendering one run on one hit in the 10th inning. Herrera struck out three batters in the appearance, but it was overshadowed by the fact he allowed the game-winning run to score. 20 PC-15 ST (8/13/13)Los Angeles Angels(CL) Shaky Dane De La Rosa (R)--Recorded the final two outs of the ninth inning on Thursday in a non-save situation allowing one hit and one walk on 15 pitches thrown.

Frieri has now put together back-to-back solid outings since losing the closer role, but it is going to take more than that to regain the ninth inning. 11 PC-10 ST (8/15/13) (MR) Kevin Jepsen (R)--Earned his eighth hold of the season Thursday after recording the final out of the seventh inning. Jepsen forced the only batter he faced to fly out on only five pitches thrown, and has now pitched back-to-back days. 5 PC-3 ST (8/15/13) Injured:  Ryan Madson (Elbow), Sean Burnett (Elbow)Minnesota Twins(CL) Solid Glen Perkins (L)–Pitched 1.1 innings of relief on Wednesday in a non-save situation allowing one run on one hit while striking out three batters on 21 pitches thrown. Perkins served up a solo-home run in the appearance, but the lead didn't slip away until the 12th inning, so Perkins wasn't credited with the loss. 21 PC-16 ST (8/14/13) (SU) Casey Fien (R)--Pitched 0.1 innings of relief on Wednesday surrendering four runs (three earned) on three hits. This was arguably Fien's worst outing of the season after recording only one out in the frame, so hopefully he can get back on track next time he takes the mound. 17 PC-12 ST (8/14/13) (MR) Jared Burton (R)–Picked up the win on Thursday after pitching a scoreless ninth inning in a non-save situation allowing one hit while striking out one batter on 12 pitches thrown.

Rivera has now blown three straight save chances and is really starting to show signs of his true age. 23 PC-16 ST (8/11/13) (SU) David Robertson (R)–Recorded his first save of the season Monday after recording the final two outs of the ninth inning. The Yankees gave Mariano Rivera the day off after blowing his third straight save Sunday, but expect Robertson to be back in his usual role on Tuesday. 22 PC-10 ST (8/12/13) (MR) Boone Logan (R)–Pitched 0.2 innings of relief on Thursday afternoon surrendering three runs of one hit and two walks. This was clearly a terrible outing for Logan, but considering how well he has pitched this season, expect him to get back on track next time out. 21 PC-12 ST (8/15/13)Oakland Athletics(CL) Elite Grant Balfour (R)–Pitched a scoreless 10th inning on Wednesday night in a non-save situation allowing one hit while striking out two batters on 22 pitches thrown.

Cook needed only eighth pitches to get through the appearance, forcing one ground ball out while striking out one batter to take the game to extra innings. 8 PC-6 ST (8/14/13) (MR) Sean Doolittle (L)–Took the loss on Wednesday night after surrendering one run on two hits in the 11th inning. Doolittle had been pitching better as of late, but this outing shows he is still far away from being an elite reliever in the big leagues. 22 PC-17 ST (8/14/13)Seattle Mariners(CL) Shaky Danny Farquhar (R)--Took the loss and was charged with a blown-save after surrendering two runs on four hits and one walk in the ninth inning. This was Farquhar's first blown-save since taking over the closer role, but with all things considered, he will likely be on a short leash. 15 PC-8 ST (8/14/13) (MR) Charlie Furbush (L)--Earned his 13th hold of the season Wednesday after pitching 1.2 innings of scoreless relief. Furbush retired all five batters he faced in order, forcing two ground ball outs and one fly ball out while striking out two batters to get the job done. 25 PC-16 ST (8/14/13) (MR) Yoervis Medina (R)--Earned his 11th hold of the season Wednesday after pitching 1.1 innings of scoreless relief.
