McGee gave up a home run to NIck Ahmed in his Rockies debut Wednesday, but escaped with his first save of the season.

EDGE Analysis

Ahmed's homer cut the Rockies' lead to one run, but McGee bounced back and got Jean Segura and Chris Owings to fly out to end the game. With Jason Motte on the DL with a shoulder injury, McGee will have the closer job all to himself over the first several weeks of the season, at least. If he pitches well enough, the lefty McGee should remain the primary option even after Motte's return.
