Jul 4 RHP Ryan Franklin gained his 20th save in 21 tries by surviving a bases-loaded situation in the ninth at Great American Ball Park, where he had suffered his only blown save on May 10. "To battle back like (the Cardinals did)... to let that lead get away, I couldn't live with myself for at least a day," Franklin joked. Yahoo! Sports


Jun 27 Franklin delivered a clean ninth inning against Minnesota on Saturday for his 18th save of the season.

Recommendation: He hasn't blown a save since May 10, while Franklin's ERA is now a tidy 0.93. It'd hardly be surprising if he were selected to pitch for the National League in the All-Star Game next month. He's now gone 11 straight outings without surrendering a run.
