Remember that story about JJ from the other day?

Guardado being pulled from M's Closing Role

"We're going to back off Eddie as far as being the closer right now,'' manager Mike Hargrove said this morning. "We'll try to pitch him in less pressure situations. Just back him away from the edge and see if we can't get his confidence up."

Hargrove said he will go with a committee setup.

"We'll try to match up late in the ballgame and go with the guy that has got the hot hand,'' he said. "We're not going to designate any one person to take over that one spot. It will be a combination of all of them.''


JJ Putz may get a few more save opportunities in the near future.
