Nationals manager Davey Johnson said Monday that Henry Rodriguez is still his closer. Rodriguez has blown two saves in his last four chances, including a walk-off grand slam by Joey Votto on Sunday, but Johnson will continue to rely on him in the ninth inning with Brad Lidge and Drew Storen (elbow) sidelined. "He's still my closer," said Johnson. "As far as I'm concerned, he's been great. I have confidence in him."
