Vizcaino walked one and struck out one in a scoreless eighth inning Monday against the Pirates to pick up his eighth hold of the season.

He has yet to record a save this year but the 26-year-old has the eighth-inning job on lockdown for the Braves right now, posting a 2.45 ERA, 0.98 WHIP and 22:5 K:BB in 18.1 innings. Should Jim Johnson get dealt over the summer, Vizcaino would be the favorite to assume the closer role.
