Matt Herges - R - Giants
Manager Felipe Alou indicated that Matt Herges is no longer his primary closer.
When Alou makes out his lineup card and writes down the options available out
of the bullpen each night, he lists his closer last. Last night, ''I put
everybody next to each other (in a row),'' he said. Alou stopped short of
saying he was going with a committee, instead calling it closer-by-circumstance.
''[Herges] carried us the first half,'' the manager said. ''I don't see the
same fastball, or the same command of it. Matty right now is not throwing the
ball well. He could be a little tired, but I don't see the ball leaving his
hands with much life.'' Felix Rodriguez, Jim Brower, and Jason Christiansen
could see opportunities over the next week, but GM Brian Sabean is expected to
trade for an established closer soon. Jul. 22 - 7:39 am et
