Vinnie Pestano shaky for second save
by Jeff Lippman | CBSSports.com

Indians acting closer Vinnie Pestano recorded a save Tuesday night at home against the Royals despite Cleveland not taking a lead until it scored three runs in the bottom of the eighth inning. 

Pestano recorded his second save though he gave up three hits and a walk in the ninth to protect a one-run lead. He got a strikeout and baserunning error by the Royals. Pestano needed 22 pitches and his ERA is at 4.05. 

With Chris Perez on the mend, Pestano's time as closer may be nearing an end.

Vinnie Pestano no threat to Chris Perez
by Scott White | Senior Fantasy Writer

When Chris Perez went on the DL with a strained rotator cuff May 27, many Fantasy owners rushed to pick up his replacement, Vinnie Pestano, wondering if he could turn this short-term opportunity into a long-term role.

Three weeks later, Perez is on the verge of returning, and Pestano still has just one save to his name. We'll never know what might have been if Pestano had pulled an Andrew Bailey, piling up half a dozen saves as a stand-in. The Indians didn't win enough to see what he could do in the role, so you have to assume they'll revert to what made him comfortable in the first place.

Come Friday, Perez will be back to closing for the Indians, and Pestano will be no more than waiver fodder in Fantasy.

Vinnie Pestano notches first save
by Jeff Lippman | CBSSports.com

Indians reliever Vinnie Pestano recorded his first save Sunday against the Nationals after taking the loss in his last outing Saturday. 

Pestano walked a batter, but needed 11 pitches to get three outs for his first save of the season with Chris Perez still on the shelf. His ERA is at 4.26. 

Pestano was tabbed as the interim closer, but has gone just 1 for 3 in save opportunities.
