Ziegler gave up two runs (one earned) on two hits and two walks Wednesday, taking the loss and the blown save against the Cardinals. He gave up a game-tying home run to Jason Heyward and then after a few runners reached, Matt Carpenter scored from third base on a throwing error by catcher Jordan Pacheco to win the game in walk-off fashion. Ziegler needs to save games in order to be a fantasy asset, as he does not miss many bats (14 strikeouts in 21.2 innings), so nights like Wednesday are pretty unfortunate. It was just his second blown save of the season and his ERA sits at a very respectable 1.25, so it would seem that he would still be used in save chances going forward, at least in the short term.
