Don Mattingly has declared that he will use Dodgers right-hander Kenley Jansen in one or two lower-pressure appearances before putting him back into save situations.
"He's our closer. There's no question about that," he told True Blue LA. "We don't want him in a bases-loaded, no-room-for-error situation. We'll try to give him an inning somewhat comfortable, not a total pressure situation."
Jansen is set to be activated off the disabled list Saturday after recovering from a foot injury. He racked up 97 saves in 113 chances over the last three season.
