News: Franklin has earned saves in six of his last seven appearances.

Analysis: The Cardinals can make all the noise they want about how Franklin doesn't officially have the job, but the results speak for themselves. In nine scoreless appearances this season, Franklin has nine strikeouts and has given up just three hits and two walks. He'll never be considered a dominant closer, but numbers like that say otherwise.

News: Franklin picked up his fourth save of the season Wednesday in a win over the Mets.

Analysis: To be fair, he only entered the game when it looked like Dennys Reyes would fumble a four-run lead with one out remaining. Franklin picked up that final out by means of a foul out to the catcher, preserving his perfect ERA. but Franklin has been called on to close out a game in four of his past five appearances.
