Notches third save Fairbanks tossed a perfect ninth inning to record his third save of the season in Monday's 5-2 win over the White Sox.

Impact J.P. Feyereisen worked the sixth and seventh innings and Diego Castillo the eighth, leaving closing duties to Fairbanks. The 27-year-old has been brilliant in June, racking up two saves and two holds over six appearances with a 0.00 ERA and 6:2 K:BB, but it's always tough to predict how manager Kevin Cash will deploy his high-leverage crew in any particular game.

Fairbanks has a 1.59 ERA, 1.59 WHIP and 7:3 K:BB across 5.2 innings this season. He's recorded four holds in six outings. The right-hander is expected to see high-leverage work in the late innings.

Two scoreless efforts since return Fairbanks has two scoreless, one-inning appearances during which he's posted a 4:1 K:BB since returning from a stint on the 10-day injured list due to a shoulder issue.

Impact The most recent of the two outings came Sunday, when Fairbanks earned his fourth hold in a win over the Athletics. The right-hander should continue seeing steady work in the later innings now that he's apparently back to full health, and given his high-90s fastball, some save opportunities could certainly be in play as well.

Reinstated from 10-day IL Fairbanks (shoulder) was reinstated from the 10-day injured list Wednesday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Impact Fairbanks had been sidelined since April 9 due to a right rotator cuff strain, but he threw a 12-to-14-pitch simulated inning Monday. Fairbanks could be the favorite for save chances in the near future since Diego Castillo (groin) was placed on the 10-day injured list in a corresponding move.
