Jason Grilli gets tagged with blown save in Braves opener
by Steve Painter | Mon, Apr 4th 8:47pm EDT
Grilli was brought in to close the game but wound up with a blown save against the Nats. He allowed two hits and one run in the ninth while walking one and recording one strikeout.
Fantasy Impact:
Grilli is clearly not ready to assume the closer's role with the Braves. The hope is that coach Fredi Gonzalez sees that and will not repeat his terrible mistake of thinking otherwise. Arodys Vizcaino is clearly the best closer on the roster but Gonzalez was exercising loyalty instead of good judgment.
