Vizcaino is considered the primary option at closer, according to manager Fredi Gonzalez, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.
With the heart of the Nationals' order due up in the eighth inning Monday and the Braves clinging to a 3-2 lead, Gonzalez turned to Vizcaino, who allowed one walk but no hits in a scoreless frame. Grilli came on for the ninth inning and blew the save, and while he was somewhat unlucky, the skipper made it clear afterward that Vizcaino is the preferred option over Grilli. Perhaps situations like Monday's will keep Vizcaino from seeing the usual number of save opportunities, but it sounds like Vizcaino will get the save chance more often than not.
