Closer Watch
Padres -- Luke Gregerson converted the save for San Diego on Friday, and gave up only one hit in the process, but that hit happened to be home run by Colorado's Andrew Brown. The save was Gregerson's third save since Monday, which happen to be his only saves recorded in 2012. The job does seem to be Gregerson's at the moment, but there are plenty of guys in San Diego's bullpen ready to step in his place including Joe Thatcher who just returned from the disabled list.
