Mujica has allowed five runs on seven hits and three walks over 3.1 innings in his last three appearances. Mujica has not been good to start the 2015 season, blowing a save in early April as the fill-in closer while Koji Uehara (hamstring) was on the disabled list and now this recent run of futility. His ERA stands at 6.30 and he's allowed three homers in 10 innings. At this point, there's no word as to whether he'll remain the fill-in closer or keep his role as a setup option. Even if Mujica remains the fall-back option when Uehara isn't available, manager John Farrell recently told the Providence Journal that he will not hesitate to use Uehara on consecutive days. That will eat into Mujica's save opportunities.
