RELIEVERS: Changing Roles

Things are a little different this week—still some more blown saves, but generally speaking, relievers are doing a better job. Well, except maybe Heath Bell (RHP, MIA). (All stats are as of Sunday games).

The Giants pen is scrambling, of course, after the injury to Brian Wilson (RHP, SF). The team says that it will employ a committee approach, but Santiago Casilla (RHP, SF) is thought to be the most likely to get save chances, with the rest of the options remaining in set-up.
