Johnson remains perfect on the season with this outing, extending his scoreless innings streak to 8 innings to start the year. 16 PC-10 ST (4/18/13) (SU) Pedro Strop (R)–Failed to get the job done once again on Tuesday night allowing three runs on two hits and one walk in 0.2 innings of relief. Strop allowed two home runs in the appearance, and is now sitting on a 10.80 ERA for the year, and is starting to look like maybe he was overused last season and now the team has to pay. 22 PC-11 ST (4/16/13) (MR) Darren O'Day (R)--Was charged with a blown-save on Thursday after allowing a home run to James Loney in the eighth inning. This was the first eared-run allowed by O'Day this season and luckily for him the team was able to escape with the win in their series finale. 13 PC-8 ST (4/18/13)Boston Red Sox(CL) Shaky Andrew Bailey (R)–Recorded his second save of the season Thursday after pitching a 1-2-3 ninth inning. After a meltdown in his first save chance on Monday, Bailey has now converted saves in back-to-back games, which has likely earned him a day off on Friday. 13 PC-10 ST (4/18/13) (SU) Koji Uehara (R)–Picked up his fifth hold of the season Thursday after recording the final out of the eighth inning. Uehara wasn't supposed to pitch in this game, but after Andrew Millers failed to get the job done Uehara came in and cleaned up his mess, and has now pitched back-to-back days. 11 PC-7 ST (4/18/13) (MR) Junichi Tazawa (R)--Earned his third hold of the season Wednesday after pitching two scoreless innings of relief. Tazawa retired all six batters he faced in order fanning four batter while forcing one ground ball out and one fly ball out to help secure the win for the Red Sox. 25 PC-17 ST (4/17/13) Injured-- Joel Hanrahan (Groin)Chicago White Sox(CL) Solid Addison Reed (R)–Recorded his fifth save of the season Tuesday despite allowing one run on two hits in the ninth inning. Luckily for Reed, the White Sox had a big enough lead that this didn't effect the outcome of the game, but it was only the first run he allowed all season, so it could have been worse. 14 PC-11 ST (4/16/13) (SU) Matt Thornton (L)–Picked up his fourth hold of the season Sunday after pitching a scoreless eighth inning giving up one hit while striking out one batter. With Addison Reed pitching back-to-back days, Thornton may be used in a save situation on Monday if one was to arise when the team takes on the Blue Jays. 20 PC-12 (4/14/13) (MR) Jesse Crain (R)–Took the loss on Friday night after allowing one run on two hits and one walk in the ninth inning. He failed to get the job done in a tied game and has now pitched back-to-back days, so he will likely be unavailable Saturday. 16 PC-7 ST (4/12/13) Cleveland Indians (CL) Solid Chris Perez (R)–Pitched a scoreless ninth inning on Thursday in a non-save situation retiring all three batters he faced in order. The Indians just aren't winning right now, and as long as that continues, Perez will not get a chance to contribute in the fantasy game. 17 PC-13 ST (4/18/13) (SU) Vinnie Pestano (R)–Pitched a scoreless ninth inning on Wednesday retiring all three batters he faced in order in a non-save situation. Pestano threw just eight pitches in the appearance with all eight going over for strikes, in what was his first outing since Wednesday. 8 PC-8 ST (4/17/13) (MR) Bryan Shaw (R)–Pitched two innings of relief on Thursday allowing two runs (zero earned) on two hits while striking out two batters. Shaw hasn't done much in terms of fantasy this season, but at least he is racking up strikeouts, totaling eight strikeouts over his last three appearances. 27 PC-22 ST (4/18/13)Detroit Tigers(CL) Committee Joaquin Benoit (R)–Recorded his first save of the season Wednesday after pitching a scoreless 14th inning allowing two hits. It wasn't the cleanest of performances, but Benoit was able to seal the deal pitching on back-to-back days to notch his first save in as many tries. 13 PC-10 ST (4/17/13) (CL) Committee Phil Coke (L)–Pitched a scoreless eighth inning on Thursday retiring all three batters he faced in order. Coke has now pitched back-to-back days and may be unavailable to pitch on Friday, so plan accordingly. 16 PC-11 ST (4/18/13) (MR) Octavio Dotel (R)–Pitched 0.2 innings of relief on Friday night surrendering five runs on four his and one walk. This was yet another bad outing from Dotel, who may still be bothered by the injury that kept him out earlier in the season, so maybe there will be a fall out over the next few days in that regard, either way he has been terrible this season and holds no fantasy value. 30 PC-17 ST (4/19/13) Houston Astros (CL) Shaky Jose Veras (R)–Recorded his first save of the season Friday night after working through a scoreless ninth inning. After three weeks, Veras finally converted a save, but there is a good chance that we will have to wait an extended period of time for his next one considering how bad the Astros offense has been lately. 7 PC-6 ST (4/19/13) (SU) Rhiner Cruz (R)–Took the loss on Tuesday night after surrendering one run on one hit and one walk in the eighth inning. Cruz has now given up at least one run in three straight appearances, and will need to turn things around if he wants to remain a key player in the Astros bullpen. 20 PC-11 ST (4/16/13) (MR) Wesley Wright (L)--Earned his first hold of the season on Friday after pitching 1.1 innings of relief allowing one hit while striking out two batters. After allowing two runs on Monday, Wright has now put together back-to-back solid outings as he continues to move up the depth chart for the Astros. 24 PC-17 ST (4/19/13) Injured--Josh Fields  (Forearm) Kansas City Royals (CL) Shaky Greg Holland (R)–Recorded his third save of the season Wednesday after striking out the side on just 14 pitches thrown. After a shaky start to the season, Holland is starting to come together, and will likely hold onto the closer role until the wheels fall completely off. 14 PC-9 ST (4/17/13) (SU) Kelvin Herrera (R)–Picked up his third hold of  the season Wednesday, just one day removed from allowing three home runs in an appearance. Apparently Herrera has thick skin, after coming into this appearance as if nothing happened Tuesday, so continue using him in holds leagues moving forward. 17 PC-10 ST (4/17/13) (MR) Aaron Crow (R)–Recorded the final out of the eighth inning on Tuesday night after Kelvin Herrera blew the lead for Jeremy Guthrie. Crow has yet to give up an earned-run this season, and might be next in line to close for the Royals after this disastrous performance from Herrera. 16 PC-10 ST (4/16/13) Los Angeles Angels (CL) Shaky Ernesto Frieri (R)–Recorded his second save of the season on Sunday after recording the final four outs of the game. All four of his outs were via the strikeout, which is his specialty and the Astros worst enemy, so it was a nice pairing that favored Frieri in this one. 24 PC-15 ST (4/14/13) (SU) Sean Burnett (L)--Earned his second hold of the season Friday night after recording the final two outs of the seventh inning. Burnett needed only six pitches to forced two ground ball outs to work through the appearance. 6 PC-4 ST (4/19/13) (MR) Scott Downs (L)–Picked up his third hold of the season Friday after pitching a scoreless eighth inning allowing one hit while striking out one batter. After a shaky start to the season, Downs has now settled down and is starting to look like the pitcher we saw last season when he first joined the Angels. 10 PC-7 ST (4/19/13) Injured:  Ryan Madson (Elbow)Minnesota Twins(CL) Solid Glen Perkins (L)–Earned his third save of the season Tuesday night after recording the final two outs of the ninth inning. This was a nice bounce back performance for Perkins, who allowed two runs in his outing last Friday, so it appears Perkins is right back on track after this one. 14 PC-10 ST (4/16/13) (SU) Jared Burton (R)–Picked up his third hold of the season Monday after pitching a scoreless eighth inning. Burton allowed one hit in the appearance, but worked through it by forcing two ground ball outs while striking out one batter to continue his scoreless innings streak. 14 PC-10 ST (4/15/13) (MR) Casey Fien (R)–Was used to record the final three outs of the game Tuesday night retiring all three batters he faced in order. The Twins had a big lead in this contest, so they wanted to give Fien some extra work, and he was able to get the job done and seal the deal for the Twins. 12 PC-8 ST (4/15/13)New York Yankees(CL) Elite Mariano Rivera (R)–Recorded his fourth save of the season Wednesday after pitching a 1-2-3 ninth inning. Rivera has now pitched back-to-back days and will likely need the day off on Thursday considering his age, so David Robertson could be in line for a spot save if needed. 17 PC-10 ST (4/17/13) (SU) David Robertson (R)–Pitched a scoreless 10th inning on Thursday giving up one hit on 18 pitches thrown. With this appearance Robertson remains perfect on the season continuing to prove why he may be the best setup man in the game. 18 PC-10 ST (4/18/13) (MR) Boone Logan (R)–Pitched 0.2 innings of relief on Thursday retiring the first two batters of the eighth inning. Logan needed only seven pitches to get through the appearance, so expect him to be available for this weekend's series when the Yankees take on the Blue Jays.Oakland Athletics(CL) Solid Grant Balfour (R)–Recorded his third save of the season Wednesday despite allowing one run on two hits in the ninth inning. It was a bit of a surprise to see him take the mound after pitching back-to-back days this early in the season, but with a day off on Thursday, he should be ready to go for this weekend's series against the Rays. 19 PC-11 ST (4/17/13) (SU) Ryan Cook (R)–Picked up his third hold of the season Wednesday after pitching 1.1 innings of scoreless relief. He allowed one base runner while striking out three batters, which brings his total to 14 strikeouts on the season. 21 PC-16 ST (4/17/13) (MR) Sean Doolittle (L)–Picked up the win despite being charged with his first blown-save of the season after surrendering a game-tying home run in the eighth inning. The run allowed by Doolittle was his first of the season, and after pitching back-to-back days he may not be available to pitch on Wednesday. 17 PC-13 ST (4/16/13)Seattle Mariners(CL) Solid Tom Wilhelmsen (R)–Recorded his sixth save of the season Thursday after pitching a 1-2-3 ninth inning. Wilhelmsen has now pitched three innings over the last two days, so there is a possibility that the Mariners will elect not to use him in Friday, so if you have a closer on your bench it would be wise to use him in his place. 14 PC-11 ST (4/18/13) (SU) Carter Capps (R)--Picked up the win on Thursday after pitching two innings of relief giving up two hits and one walk while striking out three batters. Capps has now pitched back-to-back days, and considering his high pitch count, he may be unavailable to pitch on Friday. 40 PC-23 ST (4/18/13) (MR) Charlie Furbush (L)–Took the loss on Wednesday after allowing one run on one hit and two walks in the 13th inning. Furbush ash now pitched back-to-back days and will likely need a day off after throwing a lot of pitches in those contests. 32 PC-17 ST (4/17/13)Injured--Stephen Pryor (back)Tampa Bay Rays(CL) Solid Fernando Rodney (R)–Pitched a scoreless ninth inning on Friday night in a non-save situation allowing two walks while striking out one batter. Rodney hasn't had many chances to contribute for his fantasy owners, but the save chances will come, so fantasy owners need to be patient while the Rays work out their issues in their starting lineup. 21 PC-10 ST (4/19/13) (SU) Joel Peralta (R)–Pitched a scoreless eighth inning on Thursday retiring the side on 12 pitches thrown. Peralta has now pitched three of the last four days and will likely get the day off on Friday. 12 PC-7 ST (4/18/13) (MR) Jake McGee (L)–Was charged with his second blown-save of the season Thursday after allowing a game-tying home run to Steve Pearce in the seventh inning. Like his teammate Joel Peralta, McGee has now pitched three of the last four days, so a day off is likely on Friday. 18 PC-11 ST (4/18/13) Texas Rangers (CL) Elite Joe Nathan (R)–Recorded his fifth save of the season Tuesday night after recording the final out of the ninth inning. The inning did not start out as a save situation, but when Michael Kirkman failed to get the job done Nathan entered for a quick, not easy, save situation in which he converted despite allowing two base runners. 20 PC-14 ST (4/16/13) (SU) Jason Frasor (R)–Pitched a scoreless eighth inning on Thursday allowing one hit and one walk while striking out one batter. Frasor has been used sparingly this season, this being his first appearance since last Friday, which has really limited his fantasy upside in holds leagues. 23 PC-14 ST (4/18/13) (MR) Tanner Scheppers (R)–Pitched a scoreless eighth inning on Tuesday allowing one hit on just nine pitches thrown. Scheppers has really stepped up his game in the absence of Joakim Soria to establish himself as a solid middle reliever, and one that can be trusted even in fantasy leagues  that count holds. 9 PC-5 ST (4/16/13) Injured– Joakim Soria (Elbow)Toronto Blue Jays(CL) Shaky Casey Janssen (R)–Recorded his fifth save of the season Thursday after pitching a 1-2-3 ninth inning. Janssen has been solid as the Blue Jays closer, and with Sergio Santos on the disabled list, there is no chance of him losing his job any time soon. 8 PC-5 ST (4/18/13) (SU) Steve Delabar (R)–Pitched a scoreless eighth inning on Friday night allowing one hit and one walk while striking out one batter. Delabar has gotten himself into trouble as of late, allowing at least two base runners in each of his last three appearances, luckily for him it not turn into runs for the Yankees after they had a big lead, but it still isn't anything you want to see. 15 PC-10 ST (4/19/13) (MR) Esmil Rogers (R)--Picked up his third hold of the season on Thursday despite allowing one run on one hit in 1.1 innings of relief. Rogers needed 24 pitches to get through the appearance, so there is a chance he will get the day off on Friday when the Blue Jays start their weekend series with the Yankees. 24 PC-17 ST (4/18/13) Injured-- Sergio Santos (Triceps)Continue to Page 2 to view the National League Bullpen Report...National League Bullpen ReportArizona Diamondbacks(CL) Solid J.J. Putz (R)–Was charged with his second blown-save of the season Thursday after surrendering a game-tying home run to Francisco Cervelli in the bottom of the ninth inning. Outside of one bad pitch to Cervelli, Putz has been pitching well this season, so don't look too much into this outing. 20 PC-11 ST (4/18/13) (SU) David Hernandez (R)–Earned his fourth hold of the season Thursday after pitching a scoreless eighth inning giving up one hit and two walks while striking out one batter. This was a rough outing for Hernandez, but he was able to work through the jam to get the job done. 30 PC-17 ST (4/18/13) (MR) Heath Bell (R)–Earned the win on Thursday after pitching a scoreless 11th inning giving up two hits while striking out one batter. Bell has really turned it around over the course of his last few outings, and could be a nice source for holds. 19 PC-13 (4/18/13)Atlanta Braves(CL) Elite Craig Kimbrel (R)–Recorded his seventh save of the season Thursday after striking out the side in the ninth inning. With this appearance, Kimbrel remains perfect on the season and has yet to give up an earned-run proving why he is the best closer in the game right now. 16 PC-12 ST (4/18/13) (SU) Eric O’Flaherty (R)–Picked up his fifth hold of the season Thursday after pitching a scoreless eighth inning retiring all three batters he faced in order. Like his teammate Craig Kimbrel, O'Flaherty is having a great season thus far and is emerging as one of the best setup men in the game. 13 PC-7 ST (4/18/13) (MR) Jordan Walden (R)–Recorded the final out of the eighth inning on Friday night forcing the only batter he faced to ground out on eight pitches thrown. This was Walden's first appearance since last Friday, and due to the low pitch count, he should be available to pitch the rest of this weekend's series with the Pirates. 8 PC-5 ST (4/19/13) Injured– Jonny Venters (Elbow) Chicago Cubs (CL) Committee Shawn Camp (R)--Pitched a scoreless eighth inning on Friday retiring all three batters he faced in order. Camp had given up six runs over his last two outings prior to Friday's appearance, so it was nice to see him get back on track as he continues to battle for saves. 5 PC-4 ST (4/19/13) (CL) Committee Carlos Marmol (R)–Pitched a 1-2-3 ninth inning on Thursday in a non-save situation striking out two batters on just 12 pitches thrown. The Cubs has announce that Marmol could be in the mix to see some same situations, so those who are willing to take a gamble on him should snag him off the waiver wire and go get yourself some aspirin because it could give you a headache. 12 PC-8 ST (4/18/13) (MR) James Russell (L)–Pitched a 1-2-3 eighth inning on Thursday striking out one batter while forcing two ground ball outs. The Cubs announced Wednesday that they will not use Russell in the closer role since he is their only lefty in the bullpen, so despite his great start, he is out of the running for the ninth inning.Cincinnati Reds(CL) Elite Aroldis Chapman (L)–Took the loss on Friday night after allowing a game-winning home run to Justin Ruggiano in the ninth inning. This was the first run allowed by Chapman this season, but as we have seen in the past, he will be able to put this behind him and move forward. 16 PC-12 ST (4/19/13) (SU) Jonathan Broxton (R)--Pitched a scoreless eighth inning on Friday retiring all three batters he faced in order. Broxton has now pitched back-to-back days and will likely get the day off on Saturday, so fantasy owners should consider another option if one his available. 9 PC-7 ST (4/19/13) (MR) J.J. Hoover (R)--Pitched a scoreless inning of relief on Thursday retiring all three batters he faced in order. Hoover struck out one batter while forcing two ground ball outs on just 11 pitches thrown to work through the seventh inning. 11 PC-8 ST (4/18/13) Injured--Sean Marshall (Shoulder)Colorado Rockies(CL) Solid Rafael Betancourt (R)–Recorded his sixth save of the season Friday night despite allowing one run (zero earned) on one hit while striking out one batter in the ninth inning. Betancourt is now 6-for-6 in save chances this season and continues to climb up the ranks for the best closers in all of baseball with each and every solid outing that he produces. 19 PC-14 ST (4/19/13) (SU) Rex Brothers (L)–Earned his second hold of the season Friday after pitching a scoreless eighth inning. Brothers allowed one hit in the appearance while forcing two ground ball outs and one fly ball out to get the job done. 12 PC-8 ST (4/19/13) (MR) Wilton Lopez (R)–Picked up his third hold of the season Friday after striking out both batters he faced in the seventh inning. After a rough start to the season Lopez has finally started to settle into his new role with his new team and is now gaining fantasy value for those in holds leagues. 7 PC-6 ST (4/19/13)Los Angeles Dodgers(CL) Shaky Brandon League (R)–Pitched one inning of relief on Tuesday night in a non-save situation giving up one run on one hit. League has now given up an earned-run in two of his last three games, and if that continues we could see a change in the ninth inning role in Los Angeles. 22 PC-14 ST (4/16/13) (SU) Kenley Jansen (R)–Pitched a 1-2-3 ninth inning on Wednesday in a non-save situation striking out one batter while forcing two ground ball outs. Jansen has now pitched back-to-back days, but with a day off on Thursday, he will be available to pitch in the series opener against the Orioles on Friday. (MR) Ronald Belisario (R)–Pitched one inning of relief on Wednesday allowing two hits and one walk while striking out one batter. The damage was already done before Belisario entered the game, so despite allowing three base runners, this wasn't the worst performance from the Dodgers relievers. 21 PC-12 ST (4/17/13)Miami Marlins(CL) Solid Steve Cishek (R)–Recorded his first save of the season on Friday night after pitching a scoreless ninth inning. He gave up one hit in the appearance, but was able to shrug it off to earn his first save in two tries, which is at least a step in the right direction for him and the Marlins. 14 PC-9 ST (4/19/13) (SU) Jon Rauch (R)–Pitched a scoreless seventh inning on Thursday retiring all three batters he faced in order. Rauch struck out two batters in the appearance while forcing one fly ball out to work through the inning. 10 PC-8 ST (4/18/13) (MR) Mike Dunn (L)–Earned the win on Friday night after retiring the final two batters of the eighth inning. He struck out both batters he faced in the appearance, and has quietly put together a solid season thus far. 11 PC-7 ST (4/19/13)Milwaukee Brewers(CL) Shaky Jim Henderson (R)–Recorded his third save of the season Friday after pitching a scoreless ninth inning allowing one hit while striking out one batter. Henderson has now converted all three of his save chances this season and has shown no signs to which he would lose the closer role anytime soon. 17 PC-10 ST (4/19/13) (SU) John Axford (R)–Picked up his second hold of the season Friday night after pitching a scoreless seventh inning allowing one hit while striking out two batters. Axford has now pitched back-to-back days and will likely get the day off on Saturday in order to be ready for the series finale Sunday. 20 PC-13 ST (4/19/13) (MR) Michael Gonzalez (L)–Pitched a scoreless seventh inning on Thursday allowing one hit while striking out two batters. This was Gonzalez's first appearance since Sunday, so expect him to be available the next few days if needed. 17 PC-10 ST (4/18/13)New York Mets(CL) Shaky Bobby Parnell (R)–Pitched a scoreless ninth inning on Friday night in a non-save situation retiring all three batters he faced in order. Needing only 13 pitches Parnell forced two ground ball outs and one fly ball out to secure a victory for the Mets, who are continuing to be a surprise in the National League East. 13 PC-10 ST (4/19/13) (SU) Brandon Lyon (R)–Pitched 0.2 innings of relief in both ends of Tuesday's doubleheader, allowing one run in each appearance. Having pitched in both games, Lyon will likely get the day off on Wednesday when the team's wrap up the three-game series, so don't expect to see him take the mound. 15 PC-11 ST (4/16/13) (MR) Josh Edgin (L)–Pitched 0.2 innings of relief on Thursday allowing two runs on two hits in the seventh inning. In his last two appearances combined, Edgin has now given up six earned-runs and if that continues, there could be a demotion in the near future for the Mets lefty. 12 PC-10 ST (4/18/13) Injured– Frank Francisco (Elbow)Philadelphia Phillies(CL) Elite Jonathan Papelbon (R)–Pitched a 1-2-3 ninth inning on Thursday in a non-save situation thrown only 11 pitches. Papelbon forced three fly ball outs, which isn't exactly what you want to see from a pitcher, considering too many fly balls eventually turn into home runs and problems down the line. 11 PC-9 ST (4/18/13) (SU) Mike Adams (R)–Took the loss Thursday after surrendering one run on two hits and one walk in the eighth inning. With this appearance Adams is now 0-1 on the season and may get teh day off on Friday after a high pitch count. 22 PC-13 ST (4/18/13) (MR) Antonio Bastardo (L)–Pitched a scoreless eighth inning in Tuesday's loss to the Reds retiring all three batters he faced in order. Bastardo has pitched exceptionally well this season  and has not allowed an earned-run through six innings pitched in the young season. 14 PC-10 ST (4/16/13)Pittsburgh Pirates(CL) Solid Jason Grilli (R)--Recorded the final out in Wednesday's shutout of the Cardinals, striking out the only batter he faced in the appearance. Grilli has been a pleasant surprise so far this season and if his efforts continue, we could be talking about him cracking the top 10 among fantasy closers in no time. 4 PC-3 ST (4/17/13) (SU) Mark Melancon (R)–Pitched a scoreless eighth inning on Friday night retiring all three batters he faced in order. After giving up his first earned-run of the season on Sunday, Melancon has now retired the last six batters he faced, so it appears it has not effected him in the least. 8 PC-6 ST (4/19/13) (MR) Jared Hughes (R)–Took the loss on Thursday after allowing two runs on two hits and two walks while striking out two batters. This was Hughes' worst outing of the season, and it cost the Pirates the game, so expect him to get a day off on Friday so he can clear his head. 30 PC-15 ST (4/18/13)San Diego Padres(CL) Solid Huston Street (R)–Was used in a non-save situation on Wednesday night allowing one run on one hit and two walks in the ninth inning. It was not a clean outing for Street, but he was eventually able to seal the win for the Padres in what has become a heated rivalry. 26 PC-11 ST (4/17/13) (SU) Luke Gregerson (R)–Took the loss on Friday night after giving up one run on tow hits in 1.1 innings of relief. Gregerson surrendered the game-winning double to Angel Pagan, which socred Andres Torres and ended the game with just one out recorded in the ninth inning. 20 PC-13 ST (4/19/13) (MR) Dale Thayer (R)–Pitched a scoreless seventh inning on Friday retiring all three batters he faced in order. He needed only 12 pitches to work through the appearance forcing three fly ball outs to keep the game tied, prior to teammate Luke Gregerson blowing the game. 12 PC-8 ST (4/19/13)San Francisco Giants(CL) Elite Sergio Romo (R)–Recorded his seventh save of the season on Sunday after pitching a scoreless 10th inning. This was Romo's first appearance since recording his first blown-save, so it was nice to see him get back on track without it turning into a cold streak. 9 PC-8 ST (4/14/13) (SU) Javier Lopez (L)– Pitched 0.1 innings of relief on Thursday giving up one hit in the appearance. He threw just seven pitches in the outing, which was his first since last Sunday, so expect him to be available for this weekend's series against the Padres. 7 PC-4 ST (4/18/13) (MR) Santiago Casilla (R)–Picked up the win on Friday after pitching 1.1 innings of relief retiring all four batters he faced in order. It was nice to see Casilla bonce back from a back showing on Wednesday, as he continues to put together a slid season after losing the closer role in 2012. 17 PC-11 ST (4/19/13)St. Louis Cardinals(CL) Shaky Edward Mujica (R)–Earned his first save of the season on Thursday after recording the final four outs of the game. It was not a clean outing, but the team already used Trevor Rosenthal in the eighth inning, so they stuck with him despite having Mitchell Boggs available to pitch. 19 PC-14 ST (4/18/13) (SU) Trevor Rosenthal (R)--Picked up his fourth hold of the season Thursday after pitching 0.2 innings of relief. With Mitchell Boggs out as the team's closer, there is a chance that Rosenthal could get a few save chances down the road and should be considered next in line if Edward Mujica fails. 18 PC-12 ST (4/18/13) (MR) Mitchell Boggs (R)–Pitched a scoreless ninth inning on Monday in a non-save situation allowing one hit and one walk while striking out one batter. Boggs has now pitched back-to-back days and will likely be given the day off on Tuesday, considering his recent struggles. 22 PC--14 ST (4/15/13) Injured– Jason Motte (Elbow)Washington Nationals(CL) Elite Rafael Soriano (R)–Pitched a 1-2-3 ninth inning on Wednesday in a non-save situation needing only 10 pitches to close out the game. This was Soriano's first appearance since last Thursday so it was likely just a tune up for him to keep him fresh while he is not needed for saves. 10 PC-9 ST (4/17/13) (SU) Drew Storen (R)–Had a rough outing on Friday night, allowing three runs o three hits (two home runs) in the eighth inning. Storen has now given up four earned-runs in his last two appearances, and appears to not have control on all of his pitches as of late, so other options should be considered until he gets back on track. 23 PC-15 ST (4/19/13) (SU) Tyler Clippard (R)–Pitched a scoreless eighth inning on Wednesday retiring all three batters he faced in order.
