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 13th save of the season Wednesday after pitching a scoreless ninth inning allowing one hit while striking out one batter. Johnson has now pitched back-to-back days, so there is a chance he will not be used in the series finale on Thursday, so plan accordingly. 10 PC-7 ST (5/8/13) (SU) Darren O’Day (R)–Picked up his fifth hold of the season Wednesday after recording the first two outs of the eighth inning, both via the strikeout. With closer Jim Johnson pitching back-to-back days, there is a chance either O'Day or Pedro Strop will be used in the ninth inning on Thursday, if a save situation arises. 19 PC-14 ST (5/8/13) (MR) Pedro Strop (R)–Earned his third hold of the season Sunday after recording the final two outs of the seventh inning. Strop allowed one walk in the appearance, but forced two ground ball outs to end the threat. 10 PC-5 ST (5/5/13) Boston Red Sox (CL) Shaky  Junichi Tazawa (R)--Was used in the ninth inning Wednesday night in a  non-save situation allowing one run on two hits. This was his first appearance since the team named him the closer, so hopefully his next outing will be in a much more meaningful role to reward those you snatched him off the waiver wire. 18 PC-12 ST (5/8/13) (SU) Koji Uehara (R)–Pitched a scoreless seventh inning Sunday allowing one hit and one walk while striking out one batter. Uehara has now pitched on consecutive days, so he will likely be unavailable to pitch on Monday. 17 PC-10 ST (5/5/13) (MR) Andrew Miller (L)--Pitched a scoreless eighth inning Wednesday night striking out the sire on just 14 pitches. With the recent injuries to key players in the Red Sox bullpen, Miller will now move into a more meaningful role, which could result in an increase in fantasy value for those in holds leagues. 14 PC-9 ST (5/8/13) Injured-- Andrew Bailey (Biceps), Joel Hanrahan (Forearm)Chicago White Sox(CL) Solid Addison Reed (R)–Was used in a non-save situation Wednesday night allowing one run on three hits in the ninth inning. Luckily for Reed, the White Sox had a big enough cushion that the run did not hurt him, but he has now totaled three earned runs allowed over his last three innings of work. 27 PC-20 ST (5/8/13) (SU) Matt Thornton (L)–Recorded the final out of the seventh inning Wednesday night but did allowed one run (unearned) on two hits. This was Thornton has started to be sued in these type of situations more and more as the season progresses, which has caused his fantasy value to take a hit. 11 PC-7 ST (5/8/13) (SU) Jesse Crain (R)–Picked up his ninth hold of the season Wednesday night after pitching a scoreless eighth inning allowing one walk while striking out three batters. Crain has looked great this season, and at this point he looks to be the main setup man for the White Sox, which warrants him a spot on rosters in holds leagues. 18 PC-12 ST (5/8/13) Cleveland Indians (CL) Solid Chris Perez (R)–Collected is fifth save of the season Wednesday night after working out of  a jam in the top of the ninth inning. A controversial call on an Adam Rosales home run allowed Perez to walk away cleanly from this outing, but the ball clearly was a home run, and was called a double on the field, so his owners should feel lucky after this one. 25 PC-19 ST (5/8/13) (SU) Joe Smith (R)--Picked up his third hold of the season Wednesday after pitching a scoreless eighth inning allowing one hit while striking out two batters. Smith has done an excellent job since Vinny Pestano went down with an injury, and could become  solid add in holds leagues with a few more outings like this. 17 PC-12 ST (5/8/13) (MR) Bryan Shaw (R)–Earned his second hold of the season Monday despite allowing one urn on two hits in 1.2 innings of relief. Despite the injury to Vinny Pestano, it appears Shaw as passed by Joe Smith for the team's setup role, so don't expect him fantasy value to increase at this time. 29 PC-17 ST (5/6/13) Injured--Vinny Pestano (Elbow)Detroit Tigers(CL) Solid Jose Valverde (R)–Collected his third save in as many tries this season Friday night after pitching a scoreless ninth inning allowing one walk while striking out one batter. Since returning to the team Valverde has been dominant, flashing signs of his 2011 dominance, and should have no problem holding onto the job moving forward considering his competition. 19 PC-11 ST (5/3/13) (SU) Joaquin Benoit (R)–Pitched a scoreless eighth inning Wednesday night retiring all three batters he faced in order. This was Benoit's first appearance since last Thursday, so expect to see him available over the next few days. 25 PC-17 ST (5/8/13) (MR)  Al Alburquerque (R)--Pitched one inning of relief on Saturday night allowing one run on three hits while striking out two batters. The Tigers had a 16 run lead before Alburquerque entered the game, so it wasn't like this poor outing was going to cost them the game or anything. 21 PC-16 ST (5/4/13) Injured– Octavio Dotel (Shoulder), Phil Coke (Groin) Houston Astros (CL) Shaky Jose Veras (R)–Recorded his fourth save of the season Wednesday night after pitching a 1-2-3 ninth inning striking out one batter. Vera has now pitched back-to-back days, but may still be used if a save situation arises, considering he has kept low pitch counts over the last two days. 9 PC-6 ST (5/8/13) (SU) Wesley Wright (L)–Pitched a scoreless ninth inning on Sunday in a non-save situation allowing two hits on 15 pitches thrown. Wright has been one of the better relievers for the Astros this season, which isn't saying much, and if there was to be a change in the depth chart, Wright may be worth monitoring in NL-Only formats and deep mixed leagues. 15 PC-10 ST (5/5/13) (MR) Hector Ambriz (R) Injured–Josh Fields  (Forearm) Kansas City Royals (CL) Solid Greg Holland (R)–Was charged with a blown-save of the season Monday after allowing one run on four hits in the ninth inning. Holland has now pitched back-to-back days and will likely be unavailable to pitch on Tuesday when the Royals travel to Baltimore to take on the Orioles. 27 PC-13 ST (5/6/13) (SU) Kelvin Herrera (R)–Took the loss on Monday after allowing one run on three hits through two innings of work. Herrera allowed the game -winning home run to Jordan Danks in the 11th inning, which was his sixth home run allowed this season. 22 PC-15 ST (5/6/13) (MR) Aaron Crow (R)–Pitched one inning of relief on Sunday allowing a solo-home run to Alejandro De Aza in the seventh inning. The run allowed by Crow was the first by the Royals reliever this season, and the first since September 29 of 2012. 12 PC-10 ST (5/5/13) Los Angeles Angels (CL) Shaky Ernesto Frieri (R)–Was used in a non-save situation on Saturday striking out all three batters he faced in the ninth inning. The stuff is definitely there, but Frieri has just four saves on the season, so his skill set has yet to translate into much fantasy success, but that should change once the Angels turn their season around. 15 PC-11 ST (5/4/13) (SU) Scott Downs (L)–Pitched a scoreless seventh inning Sunday retiring all three batters he faced in order. Considering how inconsistent Downs has been this season, it is hard to recommend using him in holds leagues, but the Angles will turn their season around eventually, which will increase his fantasy value. 12 PC-6 ST (5/5/13) (MR) Mark Lowe (R)--In his season debut Tuesday night Lowe pitched 1.2 innings of relief allowing one walk while striking out one batter. With the injuries to both Ryan Madson and Sean Burnett, Lowe should get a lot of opportunities for holds moving forward, making him someone to target in league with that format. 16 PC-11 ST (5/7/13) Injured:  Ryan Madson (Elbow), Sean Burnett  (Forearm)Minnesota Twins(CL) Solid Glen Perkins (L)–Pitched a scoreless ninth inning Wednesday in a non-save situation retiring all three batters he faced in order. Perkings struck out two batters while forcing one fly ball out to seal the win for the Twins. 15 PC-10 ST (5/8/13) (SU) Jared Burton (R)–Took the loss Monday after allowing one run on three hits in the 11th inning. Burton has now pitched back-to-back days, and three of the last four games, so there is a good chance he will be unavailable on Tuesday. 13 PC-11 ST (5/6/13) (MR) Casey Fien (R)--Was used in the seventh inning Wednesday night allowing one run on two hits. Fien has been mediocre at best this season and holds no fantasy value unless there was to be an injury to either Jared Burton or Glen Perkins, but even then it would be minimal. 19 PC-10 ST (5/8/13)New York Yankees(CL) Elite Mariano Rivera (R)–Recorded his 12th save of the season Wednesday after pitching a scoreless ninth inning allowing one hit on 16 pitches thrown. Rivera has yet to be charged with a blown-save this season, making him 12-for-12 in save opportunities, proving why he is still one of the most dominant pitchers in the game. 16 PC-12 ST (5/8/13) (SU) David Robertson (R)–Picked up the win Wednesday night after pitching a 1-2-3 eighth inning. This was Robertson's first appearance since rolling his ankle a week ago, and appeared to be fine when on the mound, so fantasy owners should get him back into their starting lineups. 13 PC-6 ST (5/8/13) (MR) Boone Logan (R)–Took the loss Sunday after allowing one run on three hits in the eighth inning. The big blow came via a Josh Donaldson home run, which gave the Athletics the lead, which ended up forcing the Yankees to take a two-to-three series loss this weekend. 16 PC-10 ST (5/5/13)Oakland Athletics(CL) Solid Grant Balfour (R)–Collected his fifth save Sunday after pitching a scoreless ninth inning allowing one hit and one walk while striking out two batters. Balfour got himself into a jam, but was able to get the job done to take two of the three games in the Bronx. 24 PC-13 ST (5/5/13) (SU) Ryan Cook (R)–Pitched a scoreless eighth inning Wednesday night retiring all three batters he faced in order. Cook looked great in this appearance, striking out tow batters while forcing one ground ball out on just 11 pitches, as he continues to have a solid 2013 season. 11 PC-8 ST (5/8/13) (MR) Sean Doolittle (L)–Retired the final batter of the seventh inning Wednesday night needing only three pitches to get the job done. Doolittle is not known throughout fantasy as of yet, but he continues to get the job done night in and night out, and should be owned in holds leagues at this point. 3 PC-2 ST (5/8/13)Seattle Mariners(CL) Solid Tom Wilhelmsen (R)–Recorded his ninth save of the season Wednesday after pitching yet another scoreless ninth inning. He allowed just one hit in the appearance, forcing one ground ball out and two fly ball outs to seal the win for Felix Hernandez and the Mariners. 18 PC-12 ST (5/8/13) (SU) Carter Capps (R)–Was used in the eighth inning Tuesday night surrendering two runs on two hits and one walk while striking out one batter. Capps allowed a two-run homer to Garrett Jones in the inning, which raised his earned-run average to 5.29 on the season. 20 PC-13 ST (5/7/13) (MR) Charlie Furbush (L)–Pitched a scoreless seventh inning Tuesday retiring all three batters he faced in order. Furbush had it going in this appearance, striking out two batters while forcing one ground ball out to get through the outing. 14 PC-10 ST (5/7/13)Injured–Stephen Pryor (back)Tampa Bay Rays(CL) Solid Fernando Rodney (R)–Took the loss and was charged with a blown-save Monday night after allowing two runs on one hit and two walks between the eighth and ninth innings. Rodney has been far from the player we saw last season, which is the reason why you never waste high picks on closers. 37 PC-17 ST (5/6/13) (SU) Joel Peralta (R)–Took the loss Tuesday night after allowing two runs on three hits and one walk in the ninth inning. This appearance marked the third straight day in which Peralta was used, so it should come at no surprise he was roughed up, so don't expect to see him take the mound on Wednesday. 19 PC-13 ST (5/7/13) (MR) Jake McGee (L)–Despite having an other rough outing, McGee earned his fifth hold of the season after allowing two runs on two hits in the seventh inning. McGee has now pitched three straight days, and considering he has allowed four run over that stretch, he will likely get the day off on Wednesday to clear his head. 17 PC-13 ST (5/7/13) Texas Rangers (CL) Elite Joe Nathan (R)–Collected his ninth save of the season Wednesday night after pitching a scoreless ninth inning allowing one hit on 16 pitches thrown. Nathan is now 9-for-9 in save opportunities this season, and has allowed just two earned-runs while striking out 13 batters in 12.0 innings of work. 16 PC-12 ST (5/8/13) (SU) Tanner Scheppers (R)–Picked up his seventh hold of the season Wednesday after pitching a scoreless eighth inning allowing one hit while striking out one batter. Scheppers has been everything the Rangers could have asked for thus far this season, and even when Joakim Soria returns, it will be hard to take him out of the setup role considering how well he has done. 11 PC-8 ST (5/8/13) (MR) Jason Frasor (R)–Was used in the seventh inning Tuesday night allowing one run on  one hit while striking out two batters. The big blow in the inning came via a Aramis Ramirez solo-home run, which was the third home run allowed by Frasor this season in just nine innings of relief. 20 PC-11 ST (5/7/13) Injured– Joakim Soria (Elbow)Toronto Blue Jays(CL) Solid Casey Janssen (R)–Collected his ninth save of the season Tuesday night after pitching yet another 1-2-3 ninth inning. Janssen has now pitched back-to-back days, so it will be interesting to see if the Blue Jays elect to use him today, if needed, considering they were monitoring his workload earlier in the season. 10 PC-7 ST (5/7/13) (SU) Steve Delabar (R)–Picked up the win on Tuesday after pitching two scoreless innings of relief allowing just one hit and one walk. With this appearance Delabar is now 3-1 on the season with a 1.80 earned-run average through 20 innings of relief. 20 PC-12 ST (5/7/13) (MR) Esmil Rogers (R)–Pitched 1.2 innings of relief on Wednesday night allowing two runs on two hits and one walk. Rogers needed 34 pitches to get through the appearance, so don't expect him to be available on Thursday. 34 PC-21 ST (5/8/13) Injured– Sergio Santos (Triceps)Continue to Page 2 to view the National League Bullpen Report...National League Bullpen ReportArizona Diamondbacks(CL) Shaky Heath Bell (R)–Recorded his third save of the season Wednesday night after pitching a scoreless ninth inning allowing one hit while striking out one batter. Bell has now recorded saves in back-to-back games, which should give earn him a night off, so expect David Hernandez to close Thursday if needed. 17 PC-13 ST (5/8/13) (SU) David Hernandez (R)–Earned his second win of the season Tuesday night after pitching a scoreless eighth inning allowing one hit and one walk. With the recent injury to J.J. Putz, both Hernandez and Heath Bell will likely be in a time share for the closer role along with the dark horse candidate Matt Reynolds. 16 PC-8 ST (5/7/13) (MR) Matt Reynolds (L) Injured: J.J. Putz (Elbow) Atlanta Braves (CL) Elite Craig Kimbrel (R)–Pitching on back-to-back nights, Kimbrel took the loss and was charged with his third blown-save of the season Tuesday after surrendering two home runs in the ninth inning. Kimbrel has now allowed three home runs over his last three appearances, matching his 2012 total for the season, so maybe he is losing confidence rather than just experiencing his first slump of 2013. 18 PC-11 ST (5/7/13) (SU) Eric O’Flaherty (R)–Earned his 11th hold of the season Tuesday night despite allowing one run on three hits in the eighth inning. O'Flaherty has now pitched three straight days, so expect the Braves to give him the day off on Wednesday. 20 PC-11 ST (5/7/13) (MR) Jordan Walden (R)–Failed to record an out in the eighth inning allowing two runs on three hits, forcing the Braves to use Eric O'Flaherty to get out of the jam. Walden has now allowed four runs over his last two appearances, and if his struggles continue, he is going to move down the bullpen's pecking order. 11 PC-6 ST (5/6/13) Injured– Jonny Venters (Elbow) Chicago Cubs (CL) Shaky Kevin Gregg (R)--Pitched a scoreless ninth inning Wednesday in a non-save situation allowing one walk while striking out two batters. Before the game Cubs management officially labeled Gregg the team's closer moving forward, so even though Kyuji Fujikawa is set to return this weekend, it is his job to lose. 25 PC-15 ST (5/8/13) (SU) Carlos Marmol (R)--Earned his third hold of the season Tuesday night after pitching 1.1 innings of scoreless relief  It wouldn't be a Marmol outing without allowing base runners, allowing three in this performance, but worked out of the jam by forcing one ground ball out and two fly ball outs to get the job done. 25 PC-15 ST (5/7/13) (MR) Shawn Camp (R)–Pitched one inning of relief Sunday allowing two runs on one hit and two walks. After a good start to the season Camp has regressed immensely and should not even be considered in deep mixed leagues that count holds as a category. 20 PC-10 ST (5/5/13) Injured–Kyuji Fujikawa (Forearm)Cincinnati Reds(CL) Elite Aroldis Chapman (L)–Collected his seventh save of the season Saturday after pitching a scoreless ninth inning, one day after failing to get out of the ninth frame. Chapman appeared to have put that rough outing behind him, but has now pitched-back-to-back days and will likely be unavailable on Sunday. 19 PC-10 ST (5/4/13) (SU) Jonathan Broxton (R)–Picked up the win Tuesday after pitching a scoreless ninth inning retiring all three batters he faced in order. Broxton was used in a non-save situation, but Braves closer Craig Kimbrel was blown up in the ninth inning to allow Broxton to factor into the decision. 13 PC-9 ST (5/7/13) (MR) Sean Marshall (L)--Failed to record in out in his appearance on Wednesday allowing one run on one hit in the eighth inning. This was the first time Marshall pitched back-to-back days this season, but with a day off on Thursday, he will be reado to go next time the Reds take the field. 4 PC-3 ST (5/8/13)Colorado Rockies(CL) Solid Rafael Betancourt (R)–Took the loss Wednesday night after surrendering one run on two hits and two walks in the ninth inning. This was the first loss by Betancourt this season, and fantasy owners should not worry too much about this appearance, considering he has allowed just three earned-runs all season. 19 PC-8 ST (5/8/13) (SU) Rex Brothers (L)–Pitched a scoreless eighth inning Wednesday night retiring all three batters he faced in order. Brothers has now pitched back-to-back nights, so don;t expect to see him take the field on Thursday. 11 PC-6 ST (5/8/13) (MR) Wilton Lopez (R)–Pitched two scoreless innings of relief on Saturday night allowing two hits and one walk on 26 pitches thrown. Lopez has now pitched three innings over the last two days and will likely be unavailable on Sunday. 26 PC-16 ST (5/4/13)Los Angeles Dodgers(CL) Shaky Brandon League (R)–Took the loss on Tuesday night after surrendering two runs on one hit and one walk in the ninth inning. League has struggled for most of the season, but has taken the loss in back-to-back appearances, and if he doesn't right the ship soon expect to see Kenley Jansen take over the ninth inning. 27 PC-18 ST (5/7/13) (SU) Kenley Jansen (R)–Took the loss on Wednesday night after serving up the game-winning home run in the eighth inning. The Dodgers announced Wednesday that they will continue using Brandon League as there closer, so Jansen owners will have to wait for a few more League meltdowns before he gets a bump in fantasy value. 20 PC-14 ST (5/8/13) (MR) Ronald Belisario (R)–Pitched a scoreless ninth inning on Wednesday night in a non-save situation retiring all three batters he faced in order. After allowing runs in back-to-back appearances, Belisario bounce back nicely in this one, too bad it didn't help his fantasy owners considering the situation. 8 PC-5 ST (5/8/13)Miami Marlins(CL) Shaky Steve Cishek (R)–Recorded his fourth save of the season Saturday after pitching a scoreless ninth inning allowing one hit while striking out two batters. Cishek has been shaky at best over his last few appearances, allowing four base runners in his last three innings of work, but escaped unharmed in this one to secure a rare victory for the Marlins. 24 PC-14 ST (5/4/13) (SU) Mike Dunn (L)–Pitched a scoreless eighth inning Wednesday retiring all three batters he faced in order. With this appearance Dunn has now gone six appearances without allowing an earned-run, making him the best reliever on the Marlins, and by a landslide. 16 PC-11 ST (5/8/13) (MR) Jon Rauch (R)–Pitched a scoreless ninth inning Sunday in a non-save situation allowing only one hit on nine pitches thrown. After pitching three innings in last Monday's extra inning game, Rauch has only been used for two innings since, so he will likely be available to pitch when the Marlins travel to San Diego. 9 PC-6 ST (5/5/13)Milwaukee Brewers(CL) Solid Jim Henderson (R)–Collected his seventh save of the season Tuesday night after pitching a scoreless ninth inning allowing one hit on 14 pitches thrown. Henderson bounced back nicely from a loss in his last appearance and has shown no signs of slowing down, so the closer role will be his until he falters, despite rumblings of the Brewers wanting John Axford back in the role. 14 PC-9 ST (5/7/13) (MR) John Axford (R)–Pitched 0.1 innings of relief on Sunday allowing one run on two hits and two walks. After talks about Axford regaining the closer role, he was allowed four runs over two innings of relief, so it is highly unlikely that the team will consider making a switch anytime soon. 21 PC-8 ST (5/5/13) (MR) Michael Gonzalez (L)–Was used to record the final out of the seventh inning Wednesday night, which he did, just after allowing two base runners. He needed 18 pitches to get through the appearance, which eventually ended in his recording a strikeout. 18 PC-10 ST (5/8/13)New York Mets(CL) Shaky Bobby Parnell (R)–Picked up the win Tuesday night after pitching a scoreless 10th inning retiring all three batters he faced in order. Combined with Mets starts Matt Harvey, the two pitchers threw a one-hitter while striking out 14 White Sox, two of which were struck out by Parnell, in what was his second win in as many appearances. 14 PC-8 ST (5/7/13) (SU) Brandon Lyon (R)–Pitched a scoreless seventh inning Sunday night allowing one hit while striking out one batter. He needed 20 pitches to get through the appearance, forcing two ground ball outs to go along with his one strikeout to get the job done. 20 PC-12 ST (5/5/13) (MR) LaTroy Hawkins (R)--Pitched a scoreless eighth inning Wednesday night allowing one hit while striking out two batters. Despite his old age, Hawkins continues to get the job done, but in terms of fantasy, he should not be anywhere near your team, unless he passes Brandon Lyon as the team's setup man, but that likely won't happen. 16 PC-12 ST (5/8/13) Injured– Frank Francisco (Elbow)Philadelphia Phillies(CL) Elite Jonathan Papelbon (R)–Pitched a scoreless ninth inning on Tuesday night in a non-save situation retiring all three batters he faced in order. Apparently the Phillies don't want to save Papelbon for save situations, now pitching back-to-back days, but he has kept him pitch counts low so he should be good to go for  Wednesday. 14 PC-10 ST (5/7/13) (SU) Mike Adams (R)–Pitched a scoreless ninth inning Wednesday in a non-save situation allowing two hits on 15 pitches thrown. Adams got himself into an early jam, but was able to work through some early struggles by forcing two fly ball outs to take the game in to extra innings. 15 PC-11 ST (5/8/13) (MR) Antonio Bastardo (L)–Took the loss on Wednesday after allowing the game-winning run to score in the bottom of the 10th inning. With this appearance Bastardo falls to 1-1 on the year, but is still sitting on a 1.69 earned-run average, which is very respectable this far into the season. 17 PC-10 ST (5/8/13)Pittsburgh Pirates(CL) Elite Jason Grilli (R)–Recorded his 13th save of the season Tuesday after pitching a scoreless ninth inning retiring all three batters he faced in order. Grilli struck out two batters while forcing one ground ball out on just 15 pitches thrown to increase his league lead in saves, converting all 13 chances he has had this season. 15 PC-10 ST (5/7/13) (SU) Mark Melancon (R)–Earned his 12th hold of the season Tuesday after pitching a 1-2-3 eighth inning striking out two batters. Melancon has been one of the best setup men through the first five weeks of the season, and if recent success continues, we may see him in the All Star game this summer. 14 PC-10 ST (5/7/13) (MR) Jose Contreras (R)--Earned his first hold of the season Tuesday night after recording the final out of the seventh inning. Tony Watson got himself into trouble early in the seventh inning, but Contreras was able to clean up his mess and stop the bleeding in his second appearance of the season. 5 PC-3 ST (5/7/13)San Diego Padres(CL) Solid Huston Street (R)–Collected his eighth save of the season Wednesday after pitching a 1-2-3 ninth inning striking out two batters. Street is now a perfect 8-for-8 in save opportunities this season, as he continues to get the job done despite allowing six earned-runs through 14 innings of work. 18 PC-12 ST (5/8/13) (SU) Luke Gregerson (R)–Earned his eighth hold of the season Tuesday night after pitching a 1-2-3 eighth inning. Gregerson has been great so far this season and is on pace to have his best season in his career, so if for some reason he is available in a holds league, pick him up. 11 PC-6 ST (5/7/13) (MR) Dale Thayer (R)–Picked up his sixth hold of the season Tuesday night after recording the final tow outs of the seventh inning. Thayer has now pitched back-to-back days, but has kept him pitch counts low, so he may still be available to pitch on Wednesday if needed. 6 PC-4 ST (5/7/13)San Francisco Giants(CL) Elite Sergio Romo (R)–Was charged with his second blown-save of the season Wednesday after allowing two runs on two hits and one walk in the ninth inning. Romo has only had two bad outings this season, so expect him to bounce back form this one just like he did the last time. 20 PC-13 ST (5/8/13) (SU) Santiago Casilla (R)–Earned his sixth hold of the season Wednesday after retiring the final two batters of the eighth inning. Casilla struck out both batters on just eight pitches thrown, as he continues to be a solid contributor in leagues that count holds as a category. 8 PC-5 ST (5/8/13) (MR) Javier Lopez (L)– Picked up the win on Wednesday after pitching a scoreless 10th inning allowing one hit while striking out one batter. Lopez is rarely used for an entire inning of work, considering he had pitched only 7.1 innings prior to this appearance, so don't expect to see too many more outing like this one. 10 PC-7 ST (5/8/13) St. Louis Cardinals (CL) Solid Edward Mujica (R)–Earned his ninth save of the season Wednesday after pitching a 1-2-3 ninth inning needing only nine pitches to get the job done. Mujica is now 9-for-9 in save opportunities since taking over the closer role, and will Jason Motte out for the season, his job will become permanent. 9 PC-7 ST (5/8/13) (SU) Trevor Rosenthal (R)--Picked up his ninth hold of the season Wednesday after recording the forst out of the eighth inning. Rosenthal only faced two batters in the appearance, walking one and striking out the other on eight pitches, but it was enough to benefit his fantasy owners. 8 PC-3 ST (5/8/13) (MR) Fernando Salas (R)--Picked up his second hold of the season Saturday after pitching 0.2 innings of relief allowing one run on two hits. He was asked to get the final two outs of the seventh inning, and did so, just not in orderly fashion. 11 PC-9 ST (5/4/13) Injured– Jason Motte (Elbow)Washington Nationals(CL) Elite Rafael Soriano (R)–Collected his 11th save of the season Wednesday after pitching a 1-2-3 ninth inning forcing three ground ball outs to get the job done. Soriano's strikeouts are down to start the season, but the fact he is forcing a lot f ground balls is a good indication he has full control of all his pitches. 12 PC-8 ST (5/8/13) (SU) Drew Storen (R)–Earned his fifth hold of the season Sunday after pitching a 1-2-3 seventh inning needing only 14 pitches to get the job done. This was Storen's first appearance since Monday, so look for him to be used heavily over the next few days if needed. 14 PC-10 ST (5/5/13) (SU) Tyler Clippard (R)–Picked up his fifth hold of the season Wednesday after pitching a scoreless eighth inning. Clippard made it interesting by allowing two walks, as he continues to deal with command issues, but got the job done, escaping the inning unharmed. 34 PC-21 ST (5/8/13)Matthew Beck is a Fantasy Sports Columnist for Rotoinfo.com.
