Hader struck out two in a scoreless ninth inning Wednesday to record his 23rd save of the season in a 2-0 win over the Blue Jays.

EDGE Analysis

He did hit a batter, but Hader then fanned Alejandro Kirk and George Springer to stifle any chance at a Toronto rally. Hader has converted 10 of 11 save chances since the beginning of June while not allowing an earned run during that stretch, posting a 1.17 WHIP and 22:9 K:BB in his last 13.2 innings.

Hader blew the save Sunday against the Phillies. He allowed one run on one hit while striking out one over one inning.

EDGE Analysis

Hader took the mound in the 10th inning with a 6-5 lead but was unable to keep the Phillies off the board as Bryce Harper knocked in Johan Rojas, who was Philadelphia's automatic runner, with a single. It was Hader's first blown save since May 31 and also marked his first run allowed in his last 13 appearances (11.2 innings). The 29-year-old remains a highly valuable closing option, owning the seventh most saves in baseball (22) on a 1.03 ERA.

Hader picked up the save Friday against the Phillies. He struck out one over a perfect two-thirds of an inning.

EDGE Analysis

The Padres led 8-1 heading into the bottom of the ninth, but Luis Garcia made a mess of things and brought the tying run to the on-deck circle, creating the save chance for Hader. Hader struck out Trea Turner and got Nick Castellanos to fly out on a total of 10 pitches to end the game. After a shaky initial run with San Diego down the stretch last season, Hader has returned to dominant form in 2023, securing 22 saves in 25 chances to this point.

EDGE Analysis

Hader got the call in the ninth inning and saw the tying run come to the plate following a one-out walk. However, he retired the final two hitters he faced to nail down his second save in as many days. Hader has recorded 11 consecutive scoreless outings, during which he's allowed just five hits over 10 frames. He's been a little wild with nine walks during that span but has also registered 16 punchouts and collected seven saves.

Hader walked two, struck out one and didn't allow a run over two-thirds of an inning to earn the save Tuesday against the Angels.

EDGE Analysis

The All-Star closer appeared poised for a night off with the Padres entering the ninth inning with an 8-1 lead, but Jose Castillo surrendered two runs and loaded the bases to present a save opportunity. Hader threw just 12 of 23 pitches for a strike and walked in a pair of inherited runners, but he ultimately came through for his 19th save in 22 chances. The left-hander pitched in a non-save situation Monday after he saw limited work late in June, so manager Bob Melvin may attempt to stay away from his closer in Wednesday's series finale. Nick Martinez is the likeliest bet to step in for a save chance should Hader be unavailable.

EDGE Analysis

Hader hasn't let his blown save May 31 versus the Marlins turn into a slump -- he's pitched four scoreless innings and earned three saves in June.
