Gutierrez notches another save
Juan Gutierrez picked up his 7th save of the year on Friday - his 3rd in 4 days. It's safe to say that he's the closer now in Arizona while Aaron Heilman will pitch the 8th inning.

Pick up Clay Hensley
Florida Marlins manager Edwin Rodriguez has demoted Leo Nunez and moved Clay Hensley to the closer's role. Nunez has struggled recently, but this could be a temporary switch. For the meantime, Hensley should be scooped. Nunez has an 8.44 ERA since the beginning of August.

Uehara picks up another save
Koji Uehara earned his second save since new manager Buck Showalter took over for the Baltimore Orioles. Mike Gonzalez and Alfredo Simon have been used non-save situations under Showalter. It's safe to add Uehara at this point.

Putz and Thornton going to DL
Chicago White Sox relievers J.J. Putz and Matt Thornton are both likely to hit the disabled list at some point Wednesday. This clears room for Bobby Jenks to close games without anyone breathing down his neck, unless Ozzie Guillen wants to confuse us again. (Sun-Times)
Kuo Saves, Broxton watches
Hong-Chih Kuo picked up the save Tuesday for the Dodgers while Jonathan Broxton sat in the bullpen. Maybe Manager Joe Torre will use both down the stretch, or he was discouraged by Broxton's more recent struggles. Both are worth holding on to for now.
