| News: Manager Eric Wedge said that he would give Wilhelmsen a temporary break from closing games, the Tacoma News Tribune reports. | Impact: Wedge didn't specify how long the sabbatical would last, but Wilhelmsen look to get things right in middle relief while Oliver Perez and Carter Capps would handle closing duties on a matchup basis for the time being. The announcement comes in the wake of Wilhelmsen's disastrous blown save Wednesday against the Astros in which he was charged for five earned runs and tagged with the loss.(RotoWire, ) |

| News: Wilhelmsen had a colossal blown save in Wednesday's loss to the Astros, surrendering five earned runs on three hits and two walks in just one-third of an inning. | Impact: The month of June has not been kind to Wilhelmsen. He has a staggering 19.29 ERA with a pair of blown saves in six appearances this month. All relievers go through rough patches during the season and Wilhelmsen seems to be going through one right now. He is still the team's closer, but if he continues to pitch this poorly, then the Mariners may opt to go with Carter Capps in his stead.(RotoWire, ) |

| News: Wilhelmsen surrendered a run on two hits to the Astros on Monday, but managed to hold for a 3-2 win and his 16th save of the season. | Impact: Wilhelmsen has been shaky lately and the fact that he's struck out just 21 batters in 28.1 innings won't help the Mariners (or fantasy owners) feel any better. That being said, he still owns a rock-solid 2.22 ERA and is 16-for-19 in save opportunities. While the leash may be starting to shorten, we suspect Wilhelmsen still has some room to work with.(RotoWire, ) |

| News: Wilhelmsen tossed a scoreless ninth inning and allowed one hit with one strikeout to earn his 15th save of the season, preserving the Mariners' 4-1 win over the Yankees on Friday. | Impact: The Bartender hit a bit of a rough time to open the month of June, allowing runs in three of four starts, but has settled down with back-to-back scoreless outings. He dropped his ERA to 1.98 for the season, while boasting a 20:13 K:BB ratio over 27.1 innings. Though his numbers aren't ideal, he's putting up a fairly strong follow-up season to his 2012 breakout.(RotoWire, ) |
