On the SF Giants podcast with Morris and Michael:

The San Francisco Giants have the lowest save percentage in the MLB. The Giants are not even in the ballpark when it comes to saves with the rest of the National League bullpens. The Giants’ save percentage is 14 saves in 30 opportunities.

Right around 52%–surprisingly, San Diego is No. 1 at 82%. Obviously, the Padres haven’t had that many save opportunities that allowed the percentages to jump up. If your closer is having a great season (statistically) and you got 14 blown saves, four of which are attributed to Giants’ relief pitcher Hunter Strickland, you have to ask how do you characterize that?
