ANALYSIS:  The Diamondbacks bullpen welcomed Justin Martinez back after almost a month on the injured list by throwing him directly into a scalding hot fire. Martinez's first appearance after his shoulder injury came in the eighth inning of a one-run lead against the heart of the Cardinals' order.

It didn't work out, as he ended up allowing two runs and suffering a blown save and a loss.

Martinez was better his next time out, though, as he tossed a scoreless inning with a strikeout to earn his first hold since his injury and his fourth of the season on May 26. For now, the Arizona bullpen seems like a mix-and-match situation, but Martinez should ultimately end up above Shelby Miller in the pecking order.

Before his injury, Martinez held an incredible 0.90 ERA with a 0.80 WHIP across his first 10 innings of the season. During this stretch, the right-hander tallied three saves and three holds while holding an 11:4 K:BB.

A.J. Puk (elbow) has started a throwing program and will be a key factor in this bullpen as well once he returns, but he is still a ways away. For now, fantasy managers should expect Martinez to receive the bulk of save opportunities in the desert.
