Fernando Rodney Blows Third Save Thursday
7 years agoMinnesota Twins closer Fernando Rodney blew his third save of the season on Thursday, allowing the New York Yankees to score three runs (two earned) on two hits. He did not record an out in the game as Gary Sanchez hit a walk-off, three-run homer. Rodney now has just two saves in five chances with a 6.75 ERA in his first season with the team. The Twins have former closer Addison Reed operating as their setup man, but he would presumably be the team's new closer if manager Paul Molitor decides to make a change. Rodney hasn't lost his job yet but he could be on thin ice going forward.
