Mariners manager Eric Wedge said that he will use Jamey Wright in a potential save situation Saturday. | ||||||
Wright hasn't taken over the closer role, but Wedge understandably wants to give the struggling Brandon League a day off to regroup mentally. Still, the veteran right-hander is worth stashing if you're on the search for saves. He has a 1.96 ERA and 13/7 K/BB ratio over his first 18 1/3 innings of work this season. | ||||||
