Peep this: Foulke has lost his job as closer. He will do setup work in an effort to regain his form. Foulke is 0-4 with eight saves this season, the last on May 25. After 42 saves in 45 chances last season, he's failed in two save situations this season. "It's something that needs to be done," Foulke said Tuesday. "I haven't done much late in games except help us lose. ... I have to get some confidence back."
Fantasy Spin: Ahchee-mahchee this is weird, folks. But let's face facts: Foulke is a superb pitcher who is just going through a slump. I expect him to again be earning saves by the All-Star break. But for now, go get Damaso Marte and/or Antonio Osuna. Those are the guys Jerry Manuel says will be closing (oh, and possibly Bobby Howry, too). (David Srinivasan/TSN)
