Nathan pitched a perfect ninth inning Tuesday against the Mariners to get his 10th save of the year. He struck out two in the process.
Recommendation: Remember the first two weeks of the season when Nathan was a little shaky? With Tuesday's outing he has lowered his ERA to 2.41 with a 0.96 ERA and a stunning 23:2 K:BB ratio. In this mixed-up, crazy, topsy-turvy closer world, Nathan is as solid as it gets.
