When Braves closer Jason Grilli suffered a season-ending Achilles rupture on Saturday, teammate Jim Johnson inherited his closer role. Now, since Johnson has been subject to trade rumors the closer role could eventually be passed down again to Arodys Vizcaino, per MLB.com.
Johnson (2-3) has a 2.09 ERA with 31 strikeouts and 14 walks in 43 innings this season, while Vizcaino has thrown just three innings since being recalled from Triple-A earlier this week.
