Wilhelmsen was charged with his first blown save of the season Wednesday after giving up a ninth-inning run on two hits and two walks in Kansas City.

EDGE Analysis

Wilhelmsen has been far from excellent out of the Seattle bullpen this year, but he'd been unbeaten in a dozen save chances leading into Wednesday's action. Still, like the Mariners' closer to start the year, Fernando Rodney, Wilhelmsen puts too many runners on base, as evidenced by his ugly 1.41 WHIP. He'll remain the closer in Seattle to end the season, but it'd be a surprise to see him still occupying the role on Opening Day next year.
