Im not saying Law is the closer, but Strickland and Law will be more in the mix in the ninth.San Francisco (79-70) did not face a save situation in Sundays 3-0 loss to St. Louis (78-71), which moved one game behind the Giants for the National Leagues second wild card. The Giants enter Mondays series opener in Los Angeles five games behind the first-place Dodgers (84-65) in the NL West.The hard-throwing Strickland has a 3.24 ERA and three saves in 68 appearances this season. Law, a 26-year-old rookie, has a 1.90 ERA and one save in 55 games.Casilla, 36, has served as the Giants primary closer since midway through the 2014 season and has converted 31-of-40 save opportunities this season. His nine blown saves are tied with White Sox right-hander Nate Jones for most in the majors. Its also the most blown saves by a Giants reliever since Robb Nenn had nine in 1999.Im having bad luck, Casilla said Saturday. I was looking for a double play, but we lose the game.
