Another closer goes down for the count. Matt Lindstrom was placed on the 15-day DL with a sprained right elbow. He will be out for up to six weeks reports are telling me.

Expect Leo Nunez to get the saves while Lindstrom is out. Nunez has the stuff necessary to close out the games, but he hasn't been effective lately. Also, Nunez is battling a sore ankle and with Kiko Calero on the DL look for Dan Meyers to pick up a few saves while Nunez rests. If Myers is effective he could hold the job and allow Nunez to keep his role as a setup man.
