Get all your latest up-to-date daily bullpen news by following @mlbdailybullpen.American League Bullpen ReportBaltimore Orioles(CL) Solid Jim Johnson (R)–Earned his 10th save of the season Saturday after pitching a scoreless ninth inning allowing one hit. Johnson has now pitched back-to-back days and three of his last four, so there is a chance he may be given the day off Sunday considering the team is not off on Monday. 15 PC-9 ST (4/27/13) (SU) Darren O’Day (R)–Pitched a scoreless inning of relief on Tuesday night allowing one hit while striking out one batter. O'Day made it through the month of April allowing just one earned-run, and has now emerged as one of the best setup men in the American League. 22 PC-14 ST (4/30/13) (MR) Pedro Strop (R)–Pitched a scoreless eighth inning Wednesday night allowing two walks while striking out one batter. Strops struggles continued in this appearance, expect this time he did not allow any runs, but if he keeps allowing base runner at this clip, he is going to find himself in a lot of tough positions. 20 PC-8 ST (5/1/13) Boston Red Sox (CL) Shaky Andrew Bailey (R)–Pitched a scoreless ninth inning Sunday in a non-save situation allowing one hit on 13 pitches thrown. With Joel Hanrahan on a rehab assignment, Bailey's time at the closer could be coming to an end, but the team has yet to release who will be their closer, so owners will have to wait patiently to see if he holds any value moving forward. 13 PC-8 ST (4/28/13) (SU) Joel Hanrahan (R)--Recorded his fourth save of the season Thursday after pitching a scoreless ninth inning allowing just one hit on 14 pitches thrown. With Andrew Bailey unavailable due to a biceps injury, Hanrahan was able to jump right into the closer role and secure the with for the Red Sox, but once Bailey is back to full health expect Hanrahan to be back in the setup role. 14 PC- 9 ST (5/2/13) (MR) Koji Uehara (R)–Earned his eighth hold of the season Thursday after pitching a scoreless eighth inning allowing one hit while striking out two batters. After starting his major league career as a starter, Uehara has transformed into a solid middle reliever, and is worth owning in holds leagues at this point in the season. 15 PC-10 ST (5/2/13)Chicago White Sox(CL) Solid Addison Reed (R)–Collected his 10th save of the season Thursday after pitching a scoreless ninth inning, pitching on back-to-back days. Reed made int interesting by walking two batters, but worked around the base runners striking out three batters to secure the victory for the White Sox. 23 PC-12 ST (5/2/13) (SU) Matt Thornton (L)–Earned his eighth hold of the season Thursday after pitching a 1-2-3 seventh inning. Thornton only needed 9 pitched to work through the appearance, so despite pitching back-to-back days expect him to be available if needed on Friday when the White Sox take on the Royals. 9 PC-8 ST (5/2/13) (MR) Jesse Crain (R)–Picked up his seventh hold of the season Thursday after pitching a scoreless eighth inning, allowing one hit and one walk while striking out one batter. Like the rest of the back end of the White Sox bullpen, Crain has now pitched back-to-back days and may be given a day off on Friday due to his high pitch counts in his previous two outings. 23 PC-14 ST (5/2/13) Cleveland Indians (CL) Solid Chris Perez (R)–Was used in  a non-save situation in Game 2 of Sunday's doubleheader, retiring the side in order. Perez has pitched well this season, but has just three saves to show for it, so unless the Indians start winning more games, it could be a long year for Perez owners. 16 PC-13 ST (4/28/13) (SU) Vinnie Pestano (R)–Pitched one inning of relief in Game 2 of Sunday's doubleheader allowing one run on one hit and two walks. The run allowed did not change the game at all, considering the Indians where up by so much, but it would have been nice to see a clean outing from him, since he last pitched on April 22. (4/28/13) (MR) Bryan Shaw (R)–Pitched 1.2 innings of relief on Wednesday allowing two hits and one walk while striking out two batters. Shaw got himself into a jam, but was able to work around it by forcing three ground ball outs, to keep a sub-1.00 earned-run average on the season. 39 PC-24 ST (5/1/13)Detroit Tigers(CL) Solid Jose Valverde (R)–Pitched a scoreless ninth inning on Sunday in a non-save situation retiring all three batters he faced in order. It was a surprise to see Valverde take the mound in this contest, considering he pitched on Saturday, but he only threw six pitches, so he should be able to pitch, if needed, on Monday. 6 PC-5 ST (4/28/13) (SU) Joaquin Benoit (R)–Pitched two innings of relief Thursday allowing one walk while striking out three batters. With the game moving into extra innings, the Tigers decided to stretch out Benoit, who usually only pitched one inning or less per outing, and it didn't turn out bad considering he only faced seven batters. 32 PC-20 ST (5/2/13) (MR)  Al Alburquerque (R) Injured– Octavio Dotel (Shoulder), Phil Coke (Groin) Houston Astros (CL) Shaky Jose Veras (R)–Pitched 1.1 innings of relief Thursday in a non-save situation striking out all for batters he faced between the eighth and ninth innings. After a sluggish start to the season, Veras has started to pitch well despite not not being used in many save situations, so if you are desperate, he is worth picking up at this point. 19 PC-13 ST (5/2/13) (SU) Rhiner Cruz (R)–Pitched a scoreless eighth inning Tuesday night allowing two hits while striking out one batter. Rhiner got himself into a jam, but worked through it to keep the Yankees lead within reach. 14 PC-10 ST (4/30/13) (MR) Wesley Wright (L)–Was charged with a blown-save Thursday after allowing one run (unearned) on one hit without recording an out in the eighth inning. Wright has now pitched three straight days and will likely be given the day off on Friday, not that anyone should worry considering he is virtually not owned in fantasy leagues. 7 PC-3 ST (5/2/13) Injured–Josh Fields  (Forearm) Kansas City Royals (CL) Solid Greg Holland (R)–Collected his seventh save of the season Wednesday after pitching a scoreless ninth inning retiring all three batters he faced in order. Holland has pitched great over his last few appearances, but was now used on back-to-back nights, so there is a good chance we will see Kelvin Herrera in the closer role on Thursday if a save situation was to arise. 14 PC-9 ST (5/1/13) (SU) Kelvin Herrera (R)–Pitched a scoreless eighth inning Tuesday night allowing one hit while striking out one batter. Herrera has now pitched back-to-back days, and three of the last four, so don't expect to see him pitch on Wednesday. 19 PC-12 ST (4/30/13) (MR) Aaron Crow (R)–Earned his fifth hold of the season Wednesday after pitching 1.1 innings of scoreless relief. Crow retired all four batters he faced in order, forcing one ground ball out, two fly ball outs and striking out one batter to pass the ball to closer Greg Holland to seal the victory for the Royals. 14 PCP-9 ST (5/1/13) Los Angeles Angels (CL) Shaky Ernesto Frieri (R)–Earned his fourth save of the season Wednesday after pitching the final 1.2 innings to hold onto a one run lead. Frieri threw a lot of pitches in this contest (35), so there is a good chance that you may see Sean Burnett used in the closer role on Thursday if a save situation arises. 35 PC-18 ST (5/1/13) (SU) Sean Burnett (L)–Picked up his third hold of the season Friday after recording the final two outs of the sixth inning. He needed only 10 pitches to get the job done, forcing one ground ball out and one fly ball out, as he continues to be the best bridge between the Angels starters and Ernesto Frieri. 10 PC-5 ST (4/26/13) (MR) Scott Downs (L)–Earned his fifth hold of the season Wednesday despite allowing one run on two hits in the eighth inning. Downs only recorded one out in the appearance, as he continues to struggle with his pitch location early in the season. 8 PC-6 ST (5/1/13) Injured:  Ryan Madson (Elbow)Minnesota Twins(CL) Solid Glen Perkins (L)–Was used in a non-save situation on Wednesday allowing two hits while striking out one batter in the ninth inning. Perkins has been used in non-save situations in each of his last two appearances, which doesn't help his fantasy owners, but at least he as escaped unharmed in each contest. 13 PC-11 ST (5/1/13) (SU) Jared Burton (R)–Pitched a scoreless eighth inning on Wednesday retiring all three batters he faced in order. Burton has been great in the setup role so far this season, and would be a great option for saves if something was to happen to Glen Perkins. 15 PC-8 ST (5/1/13) (MR) Casey Fien (R)–Earned his second hold of the season Wednesday after pitching a 1-2-3 seventh inning. Fien needed 17 pitches to get through the outing, forcing one ground ball out, one fly ball out and striking out one to help the Twins pull out the victory at the end of the series. 17 PC-11 ST (5/1/13)New York Yankees(CL) Elite Mariano Rivera (R)–Recorded his 11th save of the season Wednesday after pitching a scoreless ninth inning allowing one hit while striking out one batter. Rivera has now pitched back-to-back days, but with a scheduled day off on Thursday he will be ready to go when the Yankees take on the Athletics on Friday. 7 PC-7 ST (5/1/13) (SU) David Robertson (R)–Picked up his fifth hold of the season Wednesday after pitching a 1-2-3 eighth inning. Robertson limped off the mound after twisting his ankle on during his appearance, but is expected to be available on Friday. 12 PC-9 ST (5/1/13) (MR) Boone Logan (R)–Picked up the win Wednesday after pitching 1.1 innings of scoreless relief. Logan allowing one hit in the appearance, but forcing three ground ball outs and struck out one batter to secure the Yankees one run lead. 12 PC-10 ST (5/1/13)Oakland Athletics(CL) Solid Grant Balfour (R)–Pitched a scoreless ninth inning on Tuesday night in a non-save situation needing 20 pitches to get through the appearance. Balfour has now pitched back-to-back days, including one two-inning performance, so there is a chance Ryan Cook will be used in the closer role on Wednesday. 20 PC-9 ST (4/30/13) (SU) Ryan Cook (R)–Pitched a scoreless ninth inning Wednesday in a non-save situation retiring all three batters he faced in order. He struck out two batters while forcing one ground ball out, with Grant Balfour unavailable. 15 PC-11 ST (5/1/13) (MR) Sean Doolittle (L)–Pitched 1.1 innings of relief on Tuesday night retiring all four batters he faced in order. Doolittle, who has now pitched back-to-back days, may be given the night off on Wednesday, so fantasy owners should plan accordingly. 18 PC-13 ST (4/30/13)Seattle Mariners(CL) Solid Tom Wilhelmsen (R)–Pitched a scoreless ninth inning Wednesday night retiring all three batters he faced in order in a non-save situation. Wilhelmsen has been dynamite this season, limiting his pitch counts and base runners, as he continues to emerge as one of the best closers in the American League. 9 PC-8 ST (5/1/13) (SU) Carter Capps (R)–Pitched 1.2 innings of relief Wednesday allowing one run on three hits while striking out two batters. Capps has struggled this season with his location, and in this contest that resulted in a Manny Muchado solo-home run in the eighth inning, but it did not become a deciding factor, considering the Mariners big lead. 29 PC-19 ST (5/1/13) (MR) Charlie Furbush (L)–Recorded the final out of the eighth inning Wednesday forcing the only batter he faced to strike out on just four pitches thrown. Furbush hadn't pitched since last Friday, so the team decided to used him to force a lefty on lefty matchup, which he ended up winnings with ease. 4 PC-3 ST (5/1/13)Injured–Stephen Pryor (back)Tampa Bay Rays(CL) Solid Fernando Rodney (R)–Was used in a non-save situation Sunday allowing one walk while striking out two batters on 17 pitches. Since blowing his first save of the season back on April 3, Rodney has converted all three save chances, but over a month of baseball, that just doesn't cut it considering where he was drafted. 17 PC-10 ST (4/28/13) (SU) Joel Peralta (R)–Pitched  a scoreless eighth inning on Wednesday night retiring all three batters he faced in order. Peralta is off to a great start this season, and if he is available in holds leagues it would be wise to try and get him into your starting lineup, considering he is sporting a 1.69 earned-run average with five holds. 12 PC-7 ST (5/1/13) (MR) Jake McGee (L)–Took the loss and was charged with his third blown-save Wednesday after allowing five runs on five hits and one walk in the sixth inning. McGee has been up and down this season, and this appearance was clearly one of those down moments, so if you own him in a holds league, you should probably take him out of your starting lineup until he gets back on track. 26 PC-17 ST (5/1/13) Texas Rangers (CL) Elite Joe Nathan (R)–Recorded his eighth save Friday night despite allowing a three-run home run in the bottom of the ninth inning. Nathan was only responsible for one of the runs that scored, with the other two being charged to Joe Ortiz, so it didn't effect his earned-run average too much. 8 PC-7 ST (4/26/13) (SU) Tanner Scheppers (R)–Pitched a scoreless eighth inning Thursday night retiring all three batters he faced in order. Scheppers put together another solid outing Thursday, forcing one ground ball out and two fly ball outs to keep his earned-run average under 1.00 on the season. 7 PC-5 ST (5/2/13) (MR) Jason Frasor (R)–Pitched 1.1. innings of relief on Wednesday retiring all four batters he faced in order. This was Frasor's fist appearance since Sunday, so expect him to be available out of the bullpen Thursday when the Rangers wrap up their series with the White Sox. 20 PC-11 ST (5/1/13) Injured– Joakim Soria (Elbow)Toronto Blue Jays(CL) Solid Casey Janssen (R)–Earned his seventh save of the season Tuesday night after pitching another 1-2-3 ninth inning. Janssen has been excellent to start the season, despite still suffering lingering effects from offseason shoulder surgery, allowing only one earned-run in the month of April. 12 PC-8 ST (4/30/12) (SU) Steve Delabar (R)–Pitched 1.2 innings of relief on Thursday allowing one hit while striking out two batters on 19 pitches thrown. Delabar has now pitched 2.1 innings over the last three days, so there is a chance that he will be used sparingly over the next few days if needed. 19 PC-14 ST (5/2/13) (MR) Esmil Rogers (R)–pitched a scoreless ninth inning on Thursday in a non-save situation allowing one hit and one walk on 11 pitches. Rogers has now pitched back-to-back days and will likely be unavailable to pitch on Friday. 11 PC-6 ST (5/2/13) Injured– Sergio Santos (Triceps)Continue to Page 2 to view the National League Bullpen Report...National League Bullpen ReportArizona Diamondbacks(CL) Shaky J.J. Putz (R)–Took the loss on Tuesday night after blowing his fourth save of the season after allowing a game-winning home run to Pablo Sandoval in the ninth inning. Putz has been far from consistent this season, and with both David Hernandez and Heath Bell lurking, his days as the team's closer could be numbered if he continues down this road. 13 PC-9 ST (4/30/13) (SU) David Hernandez (R)–Took the loss and was charged with his third blown-save of the year Wednesday after surrendering three runs on one hit and two walks in the eighth inning. There was some speculation that the Diamondbacks might possibly move Hernandez to the closer role with the recent struggles of J.J. Putz, but outing like this will likely make the team reconsider. 31 PC-16 ST (5/1/13) (MR) Heath Bell (R)–Recorded only the first two outs of the ninth inning Wednesday allowing two runs on on hit and two walks. With the recent struggles of J.J. Putz, there is a chance Bell could find himself in the ninth inning role in the upcoming weeks, but outing like this surely don't help his cause. 23 PC-12 ST (5/1/13) Atlanta Braves (CL) Elite Craig Kimbrel (R)–Recorded his ninth save of the season Monday after pitching a 1-2-3 ninth inning striking out one batter. This was Kimbrel's first outing since recording his first blown-save last Wednesday, so it appears the rough outing did not effect him and he is right back on track. 10 PC-7 ST (4/29/13) (SU) Eric O’Flaherty (R)–Picked up his eighth hold of the season Monday after pitching a scoreless eighth inning retiring all three batters he faced in order. O'Flaherty needed 13 pitches to work through the appearance forcing one ground ball out while striking out tow batters to get the job done. 13 PC-8 ST (4/29/13) (MR) Jordan Walden (R)–Pitched a scoreless ninth inning Thursday in a non-save situation allowing one hit and one walk while striking out three batters. Walden made the inning interesting by allowing two base runners, but was able to work around it to keep the Nationals lead at a minimum. 19 PC-10 ST (5/2/13) Injured– Jonny Venters (Elbow) Chicago Cubs (CL) Shaky Kevin Gregg (R)--Collected his fourth save of the season Monday night after retiring the final four batters of the game in order. Gregg is now 4-for-4 in save chances this season, and at this point, he should be considered the team's closer until Kyuji Fujikawa returns from injury. 16 PC-12 ST (4/29/13) (SU) Carlos Marmol (R)–Pitched a scoreless ninth inning on Thursday in a non-save situation allowing one hit on 16 pitches thrown. With the emergence of Kevin Gregg as the team's closer, Marmol will likely only see save situations if Gregg is unavailable, which will limit his fantasy value significantly. 16 PC-11 ST (5/2/13) (MR) Shawn Camp (R)–Was charged with his second blown-save Thursday after allowing one run on one walk in the eighth inning. He failed to record an out in the appearance, needing James Russell to relieve him after throwing just five pitches, failing to get through the inning. 5 PC-1 ST (5/2/13) Injured–Kyuji Fujikawa (Forearm)Cincinnati Reds(CL) Elite Aroldis Chapman (L)–Recorded his sixth save of the season Monday night after pitching a 1-2-3 ninth inning. Chapman has now pitched back-to-back days, but considering his low pitch counts, he should be able to pitch on Tuesday if the club needs him to do so. 13 PC-10 ST (4/29/13) (SU) Jonathan Broxton (R)–Earned his third hold of the season Monday night despite allowing one run on two hits in the eighth inning. Broxton has pitched poorly as of late, and now pitching back-to-back days, he should get a day off to clear his head. 13 PC-10 ST (4/29/13) (MR) Sean Marshall (L)--Earned his second hold of the season Sunday after retiring the final two batters of the seventh inning. Marshall has now pitched each of the last two days since returning from the disabled list, so don't expect him to be used on Monday when the Reds take on the Cardinals. 12 PC-9 ST (4/28/13)Colorado Rockies(CL) Solid Rafael Betancourt (R)–Pitched a scoreless ninth inning on Wednesday in a non-save situation retiring all three batters he faced in order. Despite a big lead, the Rockies decided to go with Betancourt to seal the victory considering he hadn't pitched in a game since last Friday, so this was just a scheduled tune up. 21 PC-15 ST (5/1/13) (SU) Rex Brothers (L)–Pitched a 1-2-3 eighth inning Wednesday night striking out two batters while forcing one ground ball out on 18 pitches thrown. Brothers has now pitched back-to-back days, but with a scheduled day off on Thursday, expect him to get ready to go on Friday. 18 PC-13 ST (5/1/13) (MR) Wilton Lopez (R)–Pitched a scoreless ninth inning on Monday night in a non-save situation retiring all three batters he faced in order. Lopez looked sharp in this non-critical outing, but has struggled in meaningful appearances this season, so maybe this role is better suited for him. 11 PC-7 ST (4/29/13)Los Angeles Dodgers(CL) Shaky Brandon League (R)–Earned his eighth save of the season Sunday after pitching a scoreless ninth inning retiring all three batters he faced in order. League was able to put his recent struggles behind him, forcing two ground ball outs and one fly ball out to get the job done. 8 PC-6 ST (4/28/13) (SU) Kenley Jansen (R)–Failed to record an out in his appearance on Wednesday night, allowing two runs on two hits in the seventh inning. This appearance was unlike Jansen's normal outings, so hopefully the Dodgers scheduled day off on Thursday will help him clear his head and get back on track. 14 PC-10 ST (5/1/13) (MR) Ronald Belisario (R)–Pitched 0.2 innings of relief on Wednesday allowing one hit and one walk while striking out one batter. After Kenley Jansen failed to record an out in the appearance, Belisario was called upon to get out of the inning, which he did, just not in normal fashion. 11 PC-6 ST (5/1/13)Miami Marlins(CL) Shaky Steve Cishek (R)–Pitched a scoreless ninth inning Monday night in a non-save situation allowing one hit and one walk while striking out one batter. Cishek has now pitched back-to-back days, and may get a day off on Tuesday, so fantasy owners should keep there eye out for the Marlins closer in the news. 17 PC-8 ST (4/29/13) (SU) Mike Dunn (L)–Pitched a scoreless ninth inning on Wednesday in a non-save situation allowing one hit and one walk while striking out one batter. Dunn was able to work out of the jam, to keep the Mets lead at one run, but it didn't matter considering the Marlins ended up losing the game anyway. 17 PC-9 ST (5/1/13) (MR) Jon Rauch (R)–Pitched a scoreless sixth inning on Thursday allowing one walk while striking out one batter. After allowing six earned-runs over his previous two appearances, Rauch got back on track in this contest, but in terms of fantasy, he is far from a player you want to roster, even in holds leagues. 15 PC-8 ST (5/2/13)Milwaukee Brewers(CL) Solid Jim Henderson (R)–Pitched a 1-2-3 ninth inning on Tuesday night in a non-save situation needing only 13 pitches to get the job done. The Brewers had a comfortable four-run lead in the contest, so the team used Henderson to make sure that lead did not slip away, considering he hadn't pitched since Saturday. 13 PC-9 ST (4/30/13) (MR) John Axford (R)–Took the loss and was charged with a blown-save Wednesday after allowing four runs (three earned) on four hits in the eighth inning. He failed to get through the inning, after allowing a two-run shot to Starling Marte, as his struggled continue in terms of allowing the long ball. 18 PC-14 ST (5/1/13) (MR) Michael Gonzalez (L)–Pitched a scoreless eighth inning on Sunday allowing one hit while striking out one batter. Gonzalez has now pitched three of the last five days, so there is a chance he will be given a day off on Monday when the Brewers open up a series with the Pirates. 15 PC-11 ST (4/28/13)New York Mets(CL) Shaky Bobby Parnell (R)–Collected his third save of the season Wednesday after pitching a 1-2-3 ninth inning. Parnell threw just seven pitches in the appearance forcing one ground ball out and one fly ball out while striking out one batter to nail down the victory for the Mets. 7 PC-6 ST (5/1/13) (SU) Brandon Lyon (R)–Was charged with a blown-save Tuesday night after failing to record an out in the ninth inning. The Marlins walked away with the victory in this contest after Lyon thew a wild pitch, and will likely be given the day off Wednesday after pitching three straight days. 11 PC-3 ST (4/30/13) (MR) LaTroy Hawkins (R)--Picked up his third hold of the season Wednesday after recording the first two outs of the eighth inning. Hawkins allowed one base runner in the appearance, but was able to forcing two ground ball outs to do his part in the Mets victory in this contest. 13 PC-9 ST (5/1/13) Injured– Frank Francisco (Elbow)Philadelphia Phillies(CL) Elite Jonathan Papelbon (R)–Pitched a scoreless ninth inning Thursday in a non-save situation retiring all three batters he faced in order. Papelbon needed only eighth pitches to work through the outing, which was his first since last Sunday, forcing three ground ball outs to seal the victory for the Phillies. 8 PC-7 ST (5/2/13) (SU) Mike Adams (R)–Earned his second hold of the season Thursday after pitching a 1-2-3 eighth inning. Adams struck out two batters in the appearance, while forcing one ground ball out in what was his first appearance since last Sunday. 14 PC-12 ST (5/2/13) (MR) Antonio Bastardo (L)–Earned his third hold of the season Sunday after pitching a scoreless seventh inning allowing one hit on 15 pitches thrown. With this appearance Bastardo lowered his earned-run average to 0.96 on the season, which is the best among Phillies relievers. 15 PC-9 ST (4/28/13)Pittsburgh Pirates(CL) Elite Jason Grilli (R)–Recorded his 11th save of the season Wednesday after pitching a scoreless ninth inning allowing one hit. Grilli is the first closer to reach 11 saves, and has yet to be charged with a blown save this season, making him one of the best values at his position. 19 PC-15 ST (5/1/13) (SU) Mark Melancon (R)–Earned his 10th hold of the season Wednesday after pitching a scoreless eighth inning allowing one hit while striking out one batter. Melancon forced one ground ball out and one fly ball out to go along with his strikeout to keep the Pirates on top before appsing the ball to closer Jason Grilli. 16 PC-9 ST (5/1/13) (MR) Jared Hughes (R)–Recorded the final two outs of the eighth inning after Tony Watson allowed three runs in the inning. Hughes was able to clean up his mess, forcing one ground ball out and one fly ball out to get out of the inning. 17 PC-10 ST (4/30/13)San Diego Padres(CL) Solid Huston Street (R)–Recorded his sixth save of the season Thursday after pitching a scoreless ninth inning allowing one hit while striking out one batter. After a slow start to the season, Street has now recorded three saves over the last week and is starting to finally give his fantasy owners solid return on investment. 16 PC-12 ST (5/2/13) (SU) Luke Gregerson (R)–Earned his sixth hold of the season Thursday after pitching a scoreless eighth inning. Gregerson allowed one hit in the appearance while forcing two ground ball outs and striking out one batter to get the job done. 17 PC-13 ST (5/2/13) (MR) Dale Thayer (R)–Picked up his fourth hold of the season Tuesday night despite allowing a solo-home run to David DeJesus in the seventh inning. The Padres had a huge lead before handing the ball over to Thayer, so the one run wasn't much of a factor in this contest. 16 PC-10 ST (4/30/13)San Francisco Giants(CL) Elite Sergio Romo (R)–Recorded his 11th save of the season Wednesday night after pitching a scoreless ninth inning allowing one hit while striking out one batter. This appearance marked the third straight day in which Romo was used, but since the Giants have a day off on Thursday, he should be available Friday when the Giants take on the Dodgers. 17 PC-11 ST (5/1/13) (SU) Santiago Casilla (R)– Earned his fifth hold of the season Wednesday after striking out the only batter he faced in the eighth inning. Casilla has now pitched three straight days, so a scheduled day off on Thursday will be just what he and the rest of the Giants bullpen will need before opening a series with the Dodgers. 6 PC-4 ST (5/1/13) (MR) Javier Lopez (L)– Recorded only one out in his appearance on Wednesday allowing one run on two hits in the sixth inning. Lopez has been far from great this season, but as the Giants primary left-handed reliever, he is going to have to figure it all out or else he could be looking for a new job. 10 PC-5 ST (5/1/13) St. Louis Cardinals (CL) Shaky Edward Mujica (R)–Earned his seventh save of the season Thursday despite allowing one run on two hits in the ninth inning. Mujica has recorded saves in three straight contests, but has allowed a run in his previous two outings, so expect him to get a day off  Friday to rest his arm and get back to his dominant ways. 16 PC-11 ST (5/2/13) (SU) Trevor Rosenthal (R)--Collected his eighth hold of the season Friday after pitching 1.1 innings of relief, allowing one run (unearned) on two hits. Rosenthal has now pitched back-to-back days, but with Edward Mujica likely unavailable Friday, he could be in line to earn a spot-save if the Cardinals don't decide to use a different plan. 28 PC-20 ST (5/2/13) (MR) Mitchell Boggs (R)–Failed to record an out in his appearance on Thursday in the seventh inning, allowing two walks on 13 pitches. Boggs was only asked to get out one, and couldn't get the job done, as he continues to struggle with command and confidence after losing the closer role. 13 PC-5 ST (5/13) Injured– Jason Motte (Elbow)Washington Nationals(CL) Elite Rafael Soriano (R)–Collected his ninth save of the season Thursday after pitching a scoreless ninth inning allowing just one hit on 18 pitches thrown. Soriano has now pitched back-to-back days, but considering his low pitch counts, he should be able to be used in the ninth inning Friday if needed. 18 PC-10 ST (5/2/13) (SU) Drew Storen (R)–Pitched a scoreless eighth inning Monday night retiring all three batters he faced in order.
