Melancon collected his eighth save of the season during Saturday's extra-innings win over St. Louis.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran had to work out of some trouble Saturday, as he allowed a run on two hits, but Melancon promptly closed the door before the game was in jeopardy. Melancon returned from the disabled list Wednesday, and he's now collected a save in consecutive games. It appears he's past the elbow injury that required the DL stint. For the year, Melancon sports a 2.84 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and 7.1 K/9 to go along with his eight saves.
